How to follow a Lemmy instance or community within Ice Cubes app? (lemmy.ml)

submitted 2 years ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

The Mastodon iOS app Ice Cubes allows users to add and follow timelines from other mastodon instances other than the signed in one. Is there a way to follow a Lemmy instance or community from within Ice Cubes? I’m unsure what the Lemmy url structure is for instances and communities.

The fedi address should look like [email protected] for example this community address is [email protected]

It should show up in mastodon after a search.

on lemmy you can put an ! in front of it to link to a community, linking to a user with @ just like on mastodon. From mastodon searching for @ community works because mastodon doesn't accept the ! kind of search

Thank you. Now trying to figure out why Icecubes isn’t allowing it as a saved timeline.

Maybe it's checking for if it's an actual Mastodon instance and recognizes that it's another software so it prevents it?
