I am new to the federated universe after leaving reddit last week. The subs I miss most are both r/veganfoodporn and r/shittyveganfoodporn. I loved seeing all the different vegan dishes from around the world and getting ideas for new recipes. Is there a comparable community anyone knows about here? When I search my community (Instance? Server? Not sure the correct term) I don’t see any, but understand if it’s there hasn’t been a prior connection, it won’t show up. Suggestions much appreciated.
Good to see some fellow vegans making their way over here.
It is! I physically live in a vegan desert and reddit was one of the few places I found a community of like minded individuals.
You just prompted me to go have a look and I found a couple that are active. Vegan recipes on sh.itjust.works and lemmy.ml have posts and pictures. Thanks for the reminder!
Here’s links
Not sure what I am doing wrong. I type !veganrecipes@lemmy.ml into my jerboa app search function and nothing happens. Is this the correct process? I can click the link and see posts directly, but in order to interact I need to figure out how to add it to my lemmy.one
I use Jerboa and sometimes I don’t have much success finding communities. You should be able to find it using the website and subscribe, then it’ll pop up in Jerboa
I found a VeganHomeCooks community: https://lemmy.world/c/veganhomecooks
Other than that i haven’t found anything like that… Would love for a shittyveganfoodporn. (although you can always create a community yourself!)
You can use browse.feddit.de to search communities across the Fediverse, even communities that your instance doesn’t know about yet. If you put the full link into the search bar of lemmy and wait a minute for the site to find the community, it will “make the connection” and allow you to subscribe to the community.
Awesome thank you! From what I have read, you need a server to host a community? I am mostly a mobile user though have a crusty laptop I sometimes plug in if I have to do any serious typing.
Nah some instances - like lemmy.world - allow users to create their own communities on their server, while others (such as beehaw) do not!
Ah, okay. I guess I assumed you needed your own server.
