A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Disclaimer: I'm a noooooob.

I am logged in to lemmy.world.

I have a feed (Beehaw Local) which I open in a new tab about Reddit affecting Google. with the beehaw.org URL (so I'm not logged in or registered) posted by someone at lemmy.world.

If I follow the @ lemmy.world link, I'm still inside Beehaw, same goes for the Technology link.

My confusion is that I can't see how to open and interact with that post without making a separate Beehaw account.

Why am I so stupid on this platform?

Why am I so stupid on this platform?

you're not stupid, it's just that the federated aspect of it combined with technical problems (things not being completely in sync) makes everything a bit confusing

edit: btw, I think the easiest way to link to another community is simply with /c/community@server, so /c/[email protected] for example. Sadly these aren't converted into links automatically yet, but if you do that manually like this, it should work on all instances: /c/[email protected]
