No easy Join(subscribe) button?

Why do I always gotta click on the instance, then click on the 3dot menu, and then click subscribe? Why not have a simple join button everywhere like Reddit? Am I missing something?

It's also hard to know which instances I am subscribed to cuz of this.

Anyways, thanks for your work devs.

There's a few ways you can subscribe based on your preferred approach.

Examples:

  • if you are on the community you want to subscribe to, tap the three dots button and tap subscribe
  • if you are on the community you want to subscribe to, tap the toolbar to open the community selector. The community selector has a section that shows which community you are currenty browsing. There is a subscribe button there.
  • if you see a post from a community you want to subscribe to, you can long tap the community name and tap subscribe.
  • you can also enable post feed headers which makes the subscribe button even more prominent. To enable this setting go to: Settings > Post feed > Turn on Use posts feed header.

Let me know if you have any other questions.

I assume you are talking about communities. I have a join button in the community header. Im on connect if that makes any difference.

This community is about summit though, and the op is right.
