I couldn't figure out how to search up communities. When I would use the search feature it would show posts with that term in it. I use mobile so idk if something is hidden to the side or what. There was some screen I kept on getting stuck on also that I don't remember now
Kbin is kinda a lot tbh, it's got a bit of a space shuttle control panel thing where the different sections of the ui are modal and you have to remember to configure each one so that you can see e.g. "newest microblogs posted by subscribers to mechanicalpencils". I figured it out after a few hours of stumbling around seeing content and not being sure how I got there.
Ah yeah--that is confusing here. I think there's a lot of UI improvements that are sure to come. For some reason there are two searches--a post search and a magazine search. The post search is the one that's visible on the top bar, and the magazine search is in the magazines tab (that lists all magazines), and in my experience is pretty good. If I search "tech" I get results from all sorts of instances.
All in all there's a lot of room for improvement, but it's such a young piece of software that I'm pretty confident it (and lemmy) will improve pretty rapidly in the coming months/years
