Thanks for the in-depth response :) I’ve discovered I can copy / select text within summit - something I used to find an annoying limitation of the reddit app, so that’s nice to have. So far I’ve discovered that community discovery within lemmy.world is just as easy in-app, but it is easier to search other servers from the web instance. So far, for things like referencing text whilst formulating a response I totally agree, but for shorter stuff I’m happy to app-switch between summit and web if needed, and for longer stuff, as an elder web user I’m no stranger to using a laptop.

Cool, I did a quick search to see what FOSS non-slop apps people were recommending, and summit came out well.

Can you elaborate on specifically what is more difficult to achieve within the app? I don’t

Yeah so this is how I started -searching !privacy@lemmy.ml however despite me knowing its there and being able to visit it, it doesn’t appear as a result.

That’s what led me to visiting Lemmy.ml and clicking subscribe from that end.

Any way - subscribing from Summit has worked, and the privacy@lemmy.ml appears in my subscription list on the web ui too.

I am now! Summit let me subscribe with a single tap, and I prefer the UI to the web version.

Cheers.

Thanks for trying.

Maybe its the username thing - who do we talk to about bugs around here?!

Thanks! That’s… An interesting bug. I’ve added a couple of communities from .ml without issue, so it does seem to be specific to that one community.
