I’m new to the whole fediverse thing, and how Beehaw and Lemmy all interact is still something I’m wrapping my head around. I’m very used to how Reddit worked and would always browse it using Apollo on my iPhone or old Reddit with RES on my laptop.

My question is, how can I get a more customized Beehaw/Lemmy experience? Is that a thing? Like is there an app at this point for Lemmy that works with instances like Beehaw? Or is that kind of a silly question and I should expect to always access Beehaw via a standard web browser? And if that’s the case, do any browsers work better with Beehaw? Like, could I run into more bugs if I use, say, Safari instead of Chrome? For instance, I notice when I’m browsing comments on a post, sometimes my page shoots me back to the top and I can’t tell if that’s a bug caused by my browser or what.

    I would start in the browser. There are things about the app that do not seem quite complete yet. Would be good to have the Brower experience first.

    Notice the view controls at the top of the page. I like New rather then Active. Also you can select Subscribed, Local, or All for scope. Once you setup your subscriptions I prefer Subscribed. You can set permanent defaults for these in settings.

    Also notice the Communties section. Go there and setup your subscriptions. Prefer local communities, then search for others in the search box.
