If I subscribe to a community that's from a different instance than my "home" instance, where should I browse to see that community?

For instance, I made an account here in Lemmy.world because it seemed like a nice, well rounded place to start. However, I want stuff from TTRPG.network to show up when I browse my "frontpage," but all I see is my Lemmy.World communities.

I'm using Liftoff on Android at the moment, but I'm a newb, so I'm clearly not tied to that app.

  • You need to view your subscribed communities, they'll show up there. By default it's probably either showing Local or All.

    • I tried that in Liftoff and Jerboa, but I'm only seeing posts from lemmy.world, no matter how I sort, so I figured I was doing something wrong.

      Maybe it's just a bug or maybe it's because I just added a bunch of non-local communities this afternoon and they haven't gone through yet. I'll try on a desktop tomorrow and see if everything's cleared up.

      Thanks for the help!

      • Perhaps these communities you follow from remote instances are not very active, so your subscriptions from lemmy.world (which tend to be larger and more active communities) are obscuring them.

        I suggest you change the sorting order to "New". I found that the default "Active" sorting always shows the same trending topics for days. Reddit also had this lazy refresh cadence with its "Hot" sorting, but to a lesser extent.

      • This happened to me with Jerboa, but it's a bug. Open your instance on the browser and click Subscribed to make sure it's working. They should show the same posts
