It’s also quite pertinent given the prevalence of feddit.(country code) instances of Lemmy, eg feddit.uk, feddit.de etc.

This is the way.

I can’t have at it, that’s the problem, that’s what I’m looking for help with. If I try to sign up the progress spinner never stops and there are errors about closed websockets in my browser developer console. That’s what I’m seeking help on.

(in terms of propagation, there are ancient posts in c/cricket@lemmy.ml that I can see via lemmy.world but not on my “home” instance of feddit.uk. In fact on feddit.uk c/cricket@lemmy.ml appears entirely empty and has for several days).

Like I said, I’m already on a different instance (feddit.uk) but the instance I’m on seems a bit flaky. There are communities on other instances that don’t show any content, whereas they do on lemmy.world. I’d heard that lemmy.world was handling the influx of new users quite well in comparison, so thought I’d try to switch.
