Rather than fragmented groups, get your Australiana posting in at the Aussie Zone Communities. No affiliation other than living in Australia.
Has cities, sports, politics so far and will add more as needed. It even has Perth and thankfully no Tasmania.
Interesting. I’m on lemmy.ml using Jeroba, when I go into the Canberra community in the app I can only see one post and one comment (my own), but when I look at the website there’s four other comments. Any idea why that is? Is this the fault of the app? Or does it come down to the federated nature of Lemmy?
Mine is having the same issue. I checked with some other communities and it didn’t seem to have that error. Can you check another instance and see if it’s the same?
Could have been a federation error?
It’s fine from the point you join though.
I’m on lemmy.ml as well, having issues with community discovery for a couple of the communities here (primarily ausfinance). Maybe federation is having issues due to the server load?
No Tasmania? !hobart@aussie.zone exists!
I’m still getting used to Lemmy. But is there a reason we can’t see the Aussie zone server in the Jerboa android app?
If it’s the first time searched from your instance, it takes time to find. Couple that with the server load makes it even longer.
Search using the search function and put in a community like !australianpolitics@aussie.zone, the whole url, and wait till it appears. You can go back to search and search it again after doing something else.

There is a Tassie one on a different instance but not much on there
There’s definitely Hobart on aussie.zone.
I believe in an Australian map without Tasmania.
Yeah Hobart is there, I’m the only one who has posted haha. We have moved to NZ anyway, the mainland smells
