Anyone in, from or interested in Greater Manchester?
I guess this will be more difficult now that the Reddit sub is back online but I’ve set up a Manchester group at !manchester@mcr.town - please feel free to come along, post stuff and have fun!
You might notice it’s on a Manchester-based instance too (mcr.town) - feel free to join that too. It’s a sibling site to our small (but active enough) Mastodon site (mcr.wtf) which is also open to new people
I’ll join from kbin (federation is still too cool to me to not call it out)
It’s great, isn’t it? I was having a conversation with someone on here the other day and didn’t realise they were on Mastodon. I’d shared the original post there and replies turned up in Lemmy and vice-versa. It’s very cool.
The only thing I wish could be improved is the having to manually go back to your home instance and search for a community on another server. It feels even worse than the same process on Mastodon, which already feels clunky.
I’m on Kbin and was having a conversation with someone on Mastadon on a Lemmy instance! It’s magic!
But yeah, I would really like a script of browser plug-in that would add a “subscribe on my home instance” button. Unfortunately I’ve barely done any programming in the last decade and I always hated web programming so I’m not the right person to make that!
