EDIT: After reading some posts on the topic, i agree that “communities” is preferable to “sublemmies” so i changed it.
Why YSK: it’s convenient but there’s no “my communities” button that makes it totally obvious, so if you are like me and get confused by anything not totally obvious, you should know these two ways to see a list of your communities:
-
Click “communities” on the home page. In the “Subscribed / Local / All” button, click “Subscribed”. HA! That was almost totally obvious!
-
Click your user name on the main page, then in the drop-menu click “profile”. Your subscribed communities appear on the right.
Subreddits are called communities in Lemmy. Sublemmy sounds fun though
Yeah, after i submitted that post i saw a discussion about “sublemmies” versus “communities”. Actually, i never thought of “sub-something” as a Reddit thing, but i guess it is. I think “communities” sounds better. I’ll use it in future.
We should probably call them communities because, well, that’s what they are so we don’t confuse the noobs. Also, I want to emphasize that this definitely isn’t reddit
As someone still finding their way around here I’m loving all these YSK posts about navigating Lemmy. Thank you all…
Agree, somewhat confusing at first but it’s coming together with time
Thank you. This is very helpful info to us newbies!
Sublemmies sounds cute 😄
OR… kinky?
If your on a browser, you can also go to lemmy.world home page and scroll down a bit, on the right part of the page, below the box containing the description of the server, there’s another box listing all the communities you’re subscribed to.
you can also go to lemmy.world home page
The home page of whatever instance you made your account on.

good question. wish I knew the answer
Still trying to figure out what “local” means
I believe “local” refers to posts on the instance you’re registered on, while “all” includes posts from federated instances
thank you. makes sense
