I’m using this to help populate my own instance and I’m having to trigger a search for communities I haven’t pulled down before. But when I click ‘trigger a search’, the search bar is populating wrong. This is what I see:
instance_assistant[email protected]
If I edit the first instance of the name out, the search works fine, but this seems like a bug.
Sounds good. Thank you for the tool. I do hope that this part of the tool is not necessary in short order. What I mean by that is that I hope that Lemmy incorporates this behavior as part of the native architecture of the site.
I think that this specific item is a huge roadblock to the growth of the site and that they put out a fix for it.
Once I subscribe to at least one community on an instance, i get the ‘alternative subscribe method’ button which does work properly.
