Communities: second button from the left on the toolbar. Looks like a list icon. Also took me a while.

How to search for posts I also haven't figured out yet. Is that possible yet? 🤷‍♂️

It's currently not possible in jerboa to search for posts, or any other content except for communities. There is a issue created on github - so I guess it will be possible in the future. For now you have to use the search function on the website of your instance. At least on feddit.de it's working as I would expect it.

Currently.

Possible in the future.

For now.

I love how FOSS often has this glimmer of hope. With Lemmy becoming more popular, an increasing number of developers might come on board and the glimmer will start becoming a light. 😊

I can search for communities in the little list box at the bottom. I have absolutely no idea how to search for posts or comments (other than using DuckDuckGo or whatever).

Oh, there it is... I had tried using that before but it was only showing the communities I had already subscribed to. Now that I've tried it again its showing other communities too. I'm assuming the server just must have been overloaded when I tried it.

Can you search for new community also? Because it seems for me it is only to search for subscribed community only?
