Relaxed section for discussion and debate that doesn't fit anywhere else. Whether it's advice, how your week is going, a link that's at the back of your mind, or something like that, it can likely go here.

Two ways. You can either copy the link I shared, click the search icon on the top right and search the community and that will give you a link you can subscribe to. You can also click communities up top, switch to all, and then search "star trek"

Sorry if this is a silly question, but what link?

[–] Master@beehaw.org 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

!startrek@startrek.website is the link but it'll probably be easier to just go here.

https://beehaw.org/search/q/%20startrek/type/Communities/sort/TopAll/listing_type/All/community_id/0/creator_id/0/page/1

Which you can then select the one you want and it will take you to a link like this.

https://beehaw.org/c/startrek@startrek.website

Notice how it references the original link? the ! tells the site to view the community locally instead of opening it in it's native location.

It seems like it should be straightforward, but it doesn't appear to be working very well.

I just saw a community I wanted to follow. My account is in lemmy.fmhy.ml, and the community is in lemmy.world.

The link to the community is this: https://lemmy.world/c/sql

Following formatting standards, the link for me to be able to join SHOULD be https://lemmy.fmhy.ml/c/sql@lemmy.world correct?

But when I type that in I get "404: couldnt_find_community". This is true every time I try to simply change the community name.

Am I misunderstanding something?
