I am theoretically switching over from Reddit to Lemmy. Finding myself spending more time on Lemmy than on Reddit. Maybe it’s because I am limited to using the desktop and can’t aimlessly browse Reddit on my iPhone. Of late, the only subreddits I cared for were on sports and their matchday threads and r/watches. I found myself aimlessly browsing through r/AskReddit and asking and answering pointless questions.

    I’m finding oddities. My friend linked me https://lemmy.world/c/hfy. I search the url, I searched !hfy@lemmy.world, and was finally only able to subscribe when I searched just “hfy” and it came up listed as “Humanity Fuck Yeah!@lemmy.world - 4 subscribers”, even though when you click through it’s listed as !hfy@lemmy.world.

    Trying to sub to https://lemmyfly.org/c/aviation did the same thing to me. If I search “!aviation@lemmyfly.org” nothing comes up but if I search just “aviation” it appears (since there’s multiple people on my server subscribed).

    Anything lemmy.ml my server is already aware of is in perpertual “Pending Subscription”.

    And mostly out of curiosity I’ve been trying to subscribe to a kbin magazine from lemmy.one (since that’s supposed to be possible) with 0 luck.
