First off, looks like a lot of new people joined the community, so welcome! Let me know if you need anything.

I wanted to get some early feedback on the new Explore (previously called communities) page.

Note: This comparison only really works if you're viewing on web.

This is what the update looks like and this is what it previously looked like

Sorry if this is not the right place, not sure where else to ask about this.

I realized there are several communities that appear empty when I visit them on Blorp web. This community for example, !blorp@lemmy.zip, I had to come to piefed.social and then search for it so I could see the posts, otherwise on blorp it looks empty and says "Nothing to see here". Not sure why or how to fix it.

What instance are you using with Blorp? Also piefed.social?

[–] itsmistermoon@piefed.social 1 points 1 hour ago

Yeah, piefed.social, sorry if I was’t clear. But I actually tried adding a second and third accounts from different lemmy instances and had the same result.

This looks so good!

[–] carrotfox@piefed.social 3 points 4 days ago

Much better! Much more readable.

I was going to complain about needing to horizontally scroll to see the full list, but the Show More button fully solves that issue. Great update.

[–] moseschrute@lemmy.world 2 points 4 days ago

Thanks! The goal was to let you quickly peek at the first couple items of a few featured sorts. Maybe you want to see a few trending communities alongside a few new communities without flipping back and forth. But you should still be able to dive into a specific category (sort) if you want.

I'm not necessarily attached to the current 3 featured categories. On Lemmy, I'm featuring TopAll, New, and Active. But I'd love to gather more feedback on the top 3 sorts people more care about.

Multi community feeds will also show up if you're using PieFed or Lemmy V1 beta.

Looks better!

I think it looks great. Looking forward to it!
