Huh, I'm having a devil of a time trying to subscribe from .world. Usually searching the second URL would do it, but I'm getting the "you are not logged in..." message.

ETA: got it, it worked in Connect!

I'm having exactly the same issue trying to login - I'm guessing that as it's hosted on OP's own instance, our instances are not yet federated with his. Not really sure how to remedy that.

Edit: Managed to subscribe with the usual workaround - searched the community list for aquariums, not there. Searched again with !aquariums@lemux.minnix.dev, still not there. Waited a minute, searched again for 'aquariums' and it was there and let me subscribe.

Hmm, I've got 6 subscribers since I've posted this. Can you try a search for the URL with filters set to All, then set to URL, and back to All? Sometimes this will allow it to show up. Since upgrading the server to 0.18 this seems to be a bug in the new codebase.

Rules

The rules may be more established as time goes on, but it's important to have a foundation to work on.

1. Follow the rules of Lemmy.world - These rules are the same as Mastodon.world's rules, which can be found here.

2. Include a community title and description in your post title. - A following example of this would be New Communities - A place to post new communities all over Lemmy for discovery and promotion.

3. Follow the formatting. - The formatting as included below is important for people getting universal links across Lemmy as easily as possible.

FAQ:

Q: Why do I get a 404?

A: At least one user in an instance needs to search for a community before it gets fetched. Searching for the community will bring it into the instance and it will fetch a few of the most recent posts without comments. If a user is subscribed to a community, then all of the future posts and interactions are now in-sync.

Q: When I try to create a post, the circle just spins forever. Why is that?

A: This is a current known issue with large communities. Sometimes it does get posted, but just continues spinning, but sometimes it doesn't get posted and continues spinning. If it doesn't actually get posted, the best thing to do is try later. However, only some people seem to be having this problem at the moment.
