A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I subscribed to technology@beehaw.org, so I can see the posts from here. I did it by seeing a post from my local server (infosec.pub) and going to the community and joining it.

How do I get to other places in the Fediverse, though? I'm on jerboa and want to interact with e.g., https://kbin.social/m/asklemmy@lemmy.ml/t/11331/Is-Lemmy-your-first-time-on-the-Fediverse

You can put that url into the search (magnifying glass in the top right) and then you'll be able to view that post within your instance.

But there's something even better - if you put "!asklemmy@lemmy.ml" into the search then you'll see a bunch of posts appear from that community.

Just above the list of search results is a link saying " asklemmy@lemmy.ml - 29 subscribers". It is not very obvious or highlighted in any way. Lemmy should fix this.

Click on that and the contents of that community will be displayed - crucially, it'll be displayed by your instance. You haven't gone to lemmy.ml, you're still on your home instance (check the address bar of your browser).

In the top right there is a nice big "Subscribe" button. Click it. Now all the posts made in that community will show up in your home feed.
