@freemo How do I create a group?
@rmerriam You have to use a group server for that, we support the group servers with special handling but the group itself is on the group server of choice. You can explore groups from the menu and see the list of various servers that have groups.
@freemo I created a group on chirp.social and it appears in their hashtag directory. But it isn't appearing anywhere else.
@DiscussCPlusPlus@chirp.social
@rmerriam There does not appear to be a group by that name on chirp. If there was it would show herE:
https://chirp.social/@DiscussCPlusPlus
@freemo I see what happened now. I created it as chirp.social/@C++Discussion but wanted to change it. The change didn't work.
@c++Discussion@chirp.social to see if it works.
@rmerriam
I dont think the "++" characters are recognized.
@c
@freemo Now I remember why I made the change. The browser doesn't like the C++ in the name and truncates the URL.
@freemo This is working @CppDiscuss
