I can’t seem to figure out how to do this in liftoff.
The best search and find method that I have for communities is to create a new post and I can search through the communities on an instance there.
However I’m not sure how else to search for communities, it just go directly to one, as the search function isn’t to helpful right now.
There’s a “community” tab for your search results.
Could it be that that’s super slow? It seems to have been loading for ages. Could be the sublem’s don’t exist, but I’m looking for music, guitar and drum related subs, which I think would be around by now.
Personally, I use an external site to search all instances. The search on an instance, and the app, only search for communities within that specific/specified instance. I don’t wanna have to muck about adding instances to Liftoff that I’ve no interest in making an account for, and then making the same search several times on different instances to find what I’m after, so I do hope they add a function to search the entire federation as well as the individual sites.
