Please forgive my ignorance but i am new: When i subscribe to a non-local instanced community. I can see the posts from that community only in “all”. Is there a way to filter posts by community?

All I see is local or all as options. Am i doing something wrong?

    I have the option for local and all. To which i assume all implies subscribed but i was hoping to have an option to have a filter per subscription.

    Say if i am subscribed to, say, world news, i would like to be able to just see world news. Even if it’s not local… if possible.

      Oh that’s interesting. I have three options: Local, Subscribed, and All

      But to see just one community you should be able to tap on the community name / image and browse just that one, regardless of what instance it’s on. I don’t think you can set a single community as the default view though

        I see the option here but doesn’t work… And not clickable.

        How did you get to your option list in your screenshot?

        Not really looking for a default view per se… Just a way to filter per community honestly.

          I got to it via this button at the top of the UI:

          It looks to me like your app hasn’t caught up with your subscriptions yet. The first day I used Jerboa nothing showed up in my subscriptions list even though I hit subscribe on a bunch of communities. I went to bed and by the next morning it was working fine:

          This is probably one of those “growing pains” things that Lemmy and Jerboa are gonna be going through for a while while the folks behind the scenes get things ironed out. I’d just give it a bit and see if they spontaneously appear tomorrow like mine did.

          Edit: you might also want to try force-stopping the app and reloading it? That might force it to pull your subscription data again, idk

          If you’d prefer you can probably open a ticket on the jerboa github about it, although I’m sure the developers have a lot of things to work on at the moment so it might not get priority yet.

            Interesting! Indeed, the subscription list only updates when i force quit and reopen.

            Thank you very much! At least i have a workaround.
