How do I join, I am so frustrated now because you are wasting my time. First it says I need a invite, then I think ok maybe if I create an account on lemmy.world. Then I do that and try but am being asked for a instance. All I know is I am trying to join https://lemmy.world/c/autism but now very much suspecting that this community will be unmoderated and hostile as well given how many tricks you have been using. Communities are either unmoderated or moderated but apply unwritten rules.
you’ve already got an account, click !autism@lemmy.world and then the Subscribe button
are you using a mobile app or just the lemmy.world website?
you are on lemmy.world
it sounds like you were trying to Subscribe without being logged in
so I’m guessing you have your login in an app instead of the website and then you opened the community in your web browser instead of in the app which already had your login
the link I provided should work in your app or wherever you’re commenting from
