I felt similarly about this, but upon reflecting, if the searches actually worked and didn’t ‘come in groups of 5’ due to SEO trash, it probably works out?
Haven’t tried it myself yet, but I have been finding myself in increasing frustration with Google and degenerate article sausage factories…
You monster! Rockabilly trash can dig deeper than I thought…
At least it gives me hope for my musical career, but I suspect I’m not deaf enough
That’s what I’ve gathered, but I don’t believe there’s a way for instance owners to limit what’s fetched - a user crafts the query and the server does the needful.
I imagine this could amount to a denial of service attack of sorts, if some high-churn communities are imported into tiny instances. How bad that could be, I have no idea - I’m speaking pretty theoretically, here. Text is tiny, after all, so it’s probably not much of a concern, since most of the media is actually handled elsewhere…
Thanks! I’m still arguing to reach out to communities in other instances through it (or to log in on other instances where the content I’m interested in resides - is that a valid concept??), but I’m having fun and it sure is new. Edit: I have finally realized it’s done in the servers communities listing, not in Jerboas listing of subscribed communities - am doofus…/edit
I love the federated idea, that’s a great approach to the corporate overlording that’s going on these days.
In an earlier time, id probably struggle through spinning up another server, but I’m way too over it the days…
I’m so confused!! Still trying to figure out how to tell jerboa to show me communities that aren’t local (and aren’t showing in all - I did find memes and other juicy numbers there!)…
I might have made the mistake of trying to pick a server that wasn’t struggling under the load of the Reddit refugees, but I still don’t think it was a bad idea…
Quite a learning curve though. Some cheat sheets or heaven forbid, starter packs would be snazzy :)
