That last example is eye opening: the VAR ref sees it as an elbow to the chin for a red card, but the on-field ref disagrees with him and sticks with a yellow card. That’s some cojones to disagree with someone who has spent a decent amount of time looking over and over at more angles than they really have time to show.
Why would you create an account on every server? You can access any community on any server that your server is federated with.
Why are you browsing on a different instance? Stay on lemmy.world and search for communities from there. You should be able to see like http://lemmy.world/c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml. Note that you are on your instance but the @ tells it to grab the community from the other.
Thanks for the reply, don’t take the rest of this as an assault on you but as a commentary on the difficulty I’ve had trying to get involved- What’s a VC? Or a VA? What’s Warhorn? This is the difficulty because this is how the “guides” I’ve found (even Paizo’s) are written: full of acronyms and esoteric terms that are never defined anywhere. Surely there are common terms (like lodge?) that apply to every region, but there isn’t a glossary to even help with that.
You’ll see it if you search for it and in All, but it won’t be in your Local or Subscribe feed
You have a right to that job! Everyone gets a bit of Imposter Syndrome every now and then. The realization that the entire World is run, every day, and built up, for centuries, by average people like you, and yet it continues to function relatively well. We are all out here just doing our best, day by day, just trying to do something that makes the World a slightly better place.
I don’t disagree that it’s a weakness. But that just is how it is for now. I’d guess that it will settle down to a few dozen “strong” instances that are all federated together, with hundreds more smaller instances available, but right now there are like 5 super-packed instances (lemmy.world, sh.itjust.works, kbin.social, etc) which are getting killed with a double-whammy: all the users and all the communities are on them.
If you search by the full URL of the sub and make sure that Search is set to “All” it will show up eventually. If you then subscribe, your instance will then be federated and start to receive info from that community but it does take a bit of time to get.
If you join a medium-sized but weeks-old instance then it is likely to already have been federated and you won’t have much of a headache.
