It is my (perhaps incorrect) understanding that NSFW communities are hidden from the global search unless you are registered/logged in at that instance.
This makes it tough for federated users to find your stuff.
Any tips on making that easier? For example, I am registered at lemmy.ml but wanna see y’alls
goodies 👁️👄👁️
I also run an instance that allows NSFW content so curious for helping discoverability of that instance as well. Was thinking of maybe adding a ‘site map-esque’ concept to a general/welcome community’s sidebar with the appropriate search strings.
ie, something like:
If you'd like to subscribe to a community put this in your search bar...
Community 1 is blah
!{community_name_1}@{instance_url}
Community 2 is blem
!{community_name_2}@{instance_url}
Community 3 is shmlep
!{community_name_3}@{instance_url}
Any better way?
Awesome, thanks @Disabled@burggit.moe ! I did the same.
I think a site-map like post would be the best way of doing things. I can’t think of any better way of doing it anyway. I could see maintaining it being kind of a pain.
I’ll look into it, might have an idea. Thanks for bringing this to my attention.
Made a quick post cataloging all our current NSFW communities. https://burggit.moe/post/9640
