I’m pretty tech-impaired so I don’t really understand the whole “decentralization” “federate” & Etc. but I saw a new lemmy “with a TTRPG community”; you might’ve seen the recent addition of "r/Accidental Renaissance. But… I can’t sign in to my Lemmy account on there! So what gives?

    FYI, this is not a tech support community. You might want to delete this post to save the poor mods from the headache - it looks like they’ve been struggling with this issue lately.

    Answer: from the instance you are subscribed to (lemmy.world), search for the relevant community like so:

    !community@instance.domain (replace the community and instance with the one you are looking for.)

    The community might not come up the first time. If it doesn’t, wait a second and perform the search again. At that point, assuming your instance is federated with the instance you are looking for, you should find the community. Click in. Subscribe. You are done!

      Thank you. The rule is still being ignored but we are still being a bit gracious about it. Soon we start enforcing it more thoroughly.
