Disclaimer: I’m a noooooob.
I am logged in to lemmy.world.
I have a feed (Beehaw Local) which I open in a new tab about Reddit affecting Google. with the beehaw.org URL (so I’m not logged in or registered) posted by someone at lemmy.world.
If I follow the link, I’m still inside Beehaw, same goes for the Technology link.
My confusion is that I can’t see how to open and interact with that post without making a separate Beehaw account.
Why am I so stupid on this platform?
If you’re subscribed to that community, it should be at the URL https://lemmy.world/c/[email protected] for you (if you aren’t subscribed yet you should be able to do so from that link). Then when you open the post from there it should be at the lemmy.world URL (https://lemmy.world/post/113642) and you should still be logged in.
Ah, when I do that, I see ‘Subscribe Pending’ :(
Strangely, I cancelled and subscribed again - now

Pretty sure that’s just a cosmetic issue on Lemmy 0.17.3. BeeHaw is updating to 0.17.4 in about 4 hours, which may resolve that. Either way, if you see that, you should be subscribed!
