Apologies for yet more dumb questions. Not sure if it’s a Thunder thing or a Lemmy thing.

When I go to search for new communities, I only get the option now to search within the instance I signed up on (Aussie.zone) instead of everywhere. Have I accidentally changed a setting somewhere?

I keep seeing communities which seem to consist of nothing but a bot that reposts stuff from Reddit.

What’s the point? Really? I ain’t posting a comment about a funny thing there. No one seems to post about the the second-hand funny thing here.

Can we please just sever ties with that shithole altogether?

Hi,

There’s a community I’d like to block from my feed but the name is so long that when I hit the info circle, the palette isn’t high enough to reach the ‘block community’ option. There’s no way to scroll down to it either.

Can we have another way of blocking communities please?

Hello, I’m just wondering how I can clear the message notifications? The little red icon says 20+ no matter what I do to read / click them.

Thanks.

Could someone explain why we can’t just plug the average PC etc into a ‘raw’ internet line (like just entering a house) and have a mini modem on the motherboard do the translation work?

I know there’s a limit to IP addresses, and that it’s maybe easier to have a little box do the work where it enters a building.

… but apart from that?
