I’m new here, fleeing reddit and it’s war on anonymity. Happy to be here!

I created my account on Lemmy.world, and yesterday learned how to subscribe to communities on other servers.

I was adding a few from Lemmy.ml, but hit a snag with a couple, using the ‘Privacy’ community as my example: when I hit ‘subscribe’ and enter ‘Lemmy.world’ as the instance to follow from, I just get a white page with ‘Server error’.

I left it 24hrs and tried again, and its still the same.

Any hints?

    Are you using a Lemmy mobile app? On voyager I just view the privacy community at privacy@lemmy.ml and select subscribe from a drop down. I don’t have to choose any instance to follow from. I’ve never had an issue subscribing from voyager.

      I am now! Summit let me subscribe with a single tap, and I prefer the UI to the web version.

      Cheers.

    Cheers and welcome. Not sure if this is your issue, but I found I can’t subscribe to an community that has a user with the same name as the community…never found a workaround for that. Also, .world may have just banned .ml out right lol.
