You'll get taken to a random community. Once you arrive there's a link at the top of the page to /r/random so you can just hammer away at that until you get somewhere that's the right combo of random and interesting.

There is also /r/randnsfw that takes you to a random nsfw communty if your instance has them.

Should these be /c instead of /r in the links?

I opted for /r/ because there might be a community called 'random' one day.

The link https://piefed.social/r/random was a bit broken until just now, try again.

Used to? Does reddit not have it any more?

Oh sweet. Might try it again.

I've yet to even get the lemmy frontend successfully running for development. Maybe piefed will be easier

Taken out two years ago

Cool, but how do I subscribe? Or can I?

Not any more - https://www.reddit.com/r/help/comments/1fojw02/cleaning_up_some_lowusage_features/

To a random community? Sure, click the link then hit follow.

Thats cool as fuck! It'll be nice when my client supports it ☺️

Works for me on android, firefox.
Very cool, i like this a lot

It will redirect you to a random community, so it wouldn't make much sense to subscribe to it. The apps will likely add a button or menu somewhere for you to use it

Nice to hear :)

FYI I've added 'Random community' to the Communities menu, right at the end.

Thanks! I'll be looking forward to that.

I think that’s about when most of us left. So that tracks.

meanwhile reddit removes r/all - crazy timeline

Voyager has had this feature for a long time

Why not just /random, then?

Yes might as well do that too.

Looks promising indeed!

I loved those. randnsfw was great as well, you never knew if you'd find happiness or go to be disturbed.

It does? How do you use it?

Go on Search and select „random community“

Thanks. It seems to land on the same few comms for me. Do you get a new comm every time?

Well for me it does not even work today. I get no result.
