Thank you for the help here. Turns out that “Undetermined” was selected but “English” was de-selected. And in order to select both, you have to ctrl click them, or else it de-selects the other. But the problem seems to be solved now, so thank you very much.
Apologies for another reply but I just wanted to dump my mounting frustration with this platform somewhere. Now I am lemmy.world, signed up and everything, and if I try to visit this Offmychest sub that is part of lemmy.world, it only loads one single post from 2014. And yet if I access the same Offmychest sub from my myserv.one account here, I see all the posts. Currently have lemmy.world open in the subreddit on my laptop, via Firefox, so I can confirm that it’s not an app issue.
Honestly I dunno anymore. I really wish that this wasn’t the only really viable Reddit alternative because I’m getting less and less impressed and more and more frustrated with this fucking place with every moment.
Thanks for the info but I ended up just signing up with lemmy.world in the mean time. Myserv.one doesn’t seem to be what it’s advertised as because I even only got the notification for your reply now, besides a bunch of images not loading and communities not showing up search (basically every queer or feminist space I looked up besides long dead communities, suspiciously enough).
lemmy.world is already 10x better. Didn’t bother with import/export as I wasn’t around on the old server enough. And I’d rather start over subscribing to communities somewhere that’s actually going to show me all the communities.
Apologies if this is a stupid question. I promise I’m not usually tech illiterate but this whole setup is new to me. How do I transfer my account to a new instance? Or do I just have to abandon this one and make a new account there?
Edit: yeah this instance I’m on sucks. Realizing now that it definitely does not let you access everything from there. A lot of communities I’ve searched for and thought were missing just aren’t showing up in myserv.one’s search results. Here I was thinking that there wasn’t even a functional non-binary community in the lemmyverse or fediverse or whatever.
Aaand it looks like I found my answer. From what I can tell, the Lemmy devs consider import/export as good enough / the same thing as transferring a profile so they’re just going to ignore the issue and never attempt to implement it. So I guess new account it is.
I did that with Jerboa and just got server errors. So I didn’t even bother trying with Sync. Gonna give it a go now, thanks.
Is this something that’s incorrect to do around here? From what I can tell, myserv.one has one single community and the whole deal is that you’re supposed to able to access anything from there? Although I’ve already come across a post suggesting that there’s some sort of server wars going on around here so I’m starting to wonder if this is actually the place for me. I just want to post and talk shit, not worry about the url I’m coming from or tip toe around in case I stumble into some war that I know nothing about.
Yeah, looks like it’s back to Firefox on Android for me. Just tried Sync and it doesn’t list the server that I signed up with either. Lol. Lmao even.
Nice, I think I used that for Reddit for a bit ages ago. I’ll definitely check it out, thank you!
Nice, thanks. I’ve actually ended up settling on the Eternity app. I used its Reddit sibling, Infinity for a long time, so I’m finding my way around pretty easily at this point. I’m sure I’ll start making use of sort more once I’ve got a bit more lurking in and I’ve seen what there is to see.
