Thanks for the first 2, I suspect my google play version is out of date as those links don’t find it for me so I’ll just use the browser for now. The play store has no updates so perhaps it’s in the provess of being pushed

As for the third, I guess there isn’t much of a difference? I’m drawing comparisons to reddit here but there were lots of subs I’d unsubscribe from so they wouldn’t appear on my feed but I could still occasionally view them. Maybe it’s just me being weird but I feel blocking is bit much for subs that haven’t done anything wrong. Ah it’s fine though, just me being picky I guess!

I can see other lemmy.world communities so I assumed I’d be able to find this other one just fine, seems I have a lot to learn about lemmy, communities, federation!

Yeah only ‘gifextra’ shows up for me unfortunately. I’m on the google play version which I’ve now read might be out of date. That might be it, thanks

I did try to join lemmy.world but it’s sat at pending so I’ll have to wait and see if that changes anything.
