Dumb question time. I signed up via lemmy.world & can subscribe to communities on other instances. Im trying to sub to communities on lemdro.id but see the error message “This thread was retrieved via lemdro.id. You are not logged in there”
The only place i can find to log in is on my search page which shows the lemmy.world instance i signed up to. Whilst adding lemdro.id instance & I’m requested to sign in to it but my login credentials are refused.
Surely we don’t need multiple log ins for multiple instances? Or is it because lemdro.id is very new & isn’t yet federated to lemmy.world (although I can see lemdro.id & its communities just fine).
Thanks in advance for holding a newbies hand.
I had this yesterday but manages to figure out my problem last night.
It seems that when you first signup you’re give what is effectively read-only (or guest) access to Lemmy via Lemmey.World - this is so you can see what instaces exist ans which you’d want to join.
Once you join an instance, in my case sopuli, you need to log into that instance on your app and run your searches etc.
Liftoff (app i use) allows me to search from L.W or sopuli, if i search from L.W i can’t interact with anything, if i search from sepuli I’m able to post confusing answers!
