lemmy.world

I'm brand new here so apologies if this is wrong. I'm using Liftoff & was able to search for & find your post like this:

  • From any post tap ⋮ menu (top right in Liftoff).
  • Select Open in browser (I have Liftoff set to use its in app browser)
  • ≡ menu (top right in Liftoff)
  • Tap search
  • Select Search = Posts, Instances =All, Sort type = New
  • You can leave community as the default All or
    • Tap community & type ask
    • Wait for the instances to populate, then select lemmy.ml/asklemmy
    • ignore that it then reverts the instance back to All
  • Creator = All
  • Search = type search query here. I used the term "search commumity" then tap Search
  • Your post showed up as the top result

Edit: An easier way to do it

  • Tap search icon at the bottom of Liftoff
  • For me the instance shows as lemmy.world & there's no option to change this
  • Type your search query in the search bar eg "search community"
  • Your post shows near the top in results

I'm gonna save this - thanks for taking the time. No need to apologise - I'm brand new here too - as I suspect thousands are! But it's good to share and I very much appreciate.
