Is it worthwhile to try to get mods to combine them? It just seems like a bit of a waste when trying to grow a community and its split in two.
Or is this what the fediverse is supposed to look like?
I read before somebody said that we might be able to combine similar communities at some point but don’t know if that’s true.
Apologies if this is a repeat question. I’m not entirely sure if there is a way to search in Jerboa for similar posts but I don’t think there.
The search function should function the same way as the search function on the official web interface. That means however, unless you’re searching the url of a specific community, it can only search for communities, comments and posts on instances it has cached. If it hasn’t had a member visit a community at least once, it won’t know it exists.
I recommend browse.feddit.de to search for communities, and for newly created communities, you can search through the posts in !newcommunities@lemmy.world
There are many other places to look, you can find multiple lists of communities that migrated from Reddit with a quick google search.
Just saw that some apps do have a search function already. I’ve been using Jerboa and it doesn’t have one yet (for posts/comments that is).
Thanks
