I'm confused to be honest, but I admit I just started. But like, where do I look at pictures of houseplants and post mine? Do I find a server devoted to houseplants? Or maybe I should just finally figure out Instagram for that.
There's a houseplants sub on mander.xyz. I'll see if I can figure out how to link it...
!houseplants@mander.xyz ... Nope...
https://mander.xyz/c/houseplants ... Jumps to the browser at least in Jerboa.
No idea if there is an equivalent of typing r/subreddit...
Here's a link: /c/houseplants@mander.xyz
Linking is a bit clunky and a lot of people post direct links to a community with its home instance URL, which causes problems when you're browsing around. That's an issue I hope improves over time as the software matures.
Edit: I don’t know if that link will work in apps. I’m using the TestFlight of Mlem on iOS and it just crashes the app 😂. But in the browser it’ll take you to the community in your home instance instead of the community’s home instance.
Oohhh, so that is how you do the links!!
Testing: /c/gaybros@lemmy.world
EDIT: Seems to work! Hopefully Lemmy will make it so things of the format /c/blabla@abc.cde are automatically linked without having to mess with markdown.
Huh! Clicking that actually crashes Jerboa...
Edit: replies with the wrong account. See edit above.
Note to self: be careful signing into accounts on multiple instances!
There's the Nature and Gardening community on Beehaw.org, you might want to check that out.
