Lemmur looks nice but I can't seem to add a new instance (I'm on programming.dev). Does that work for anyone else?

Yea I think it's broken right now

It's unmaintained

They stop development on lemmur which is a shame because jerboa blocks instances arbitrarily which is a big L for federation

Blocks instance? In what way?

[–] 10_0@lemmy.ml 0 points 2 years ago

To my understanding, the app is developed by the admins for Lemmy.ml, and when I tried to add wolfballs it didn't work (haven't tried since, so it might've changed, also didn't have this problem with lemmur)

Jerboa isn't an instance. It's just an app. If a community hasn't been indexed yet, then Jerboa can't find it in search. You'd need to use the website to do that first. Once added it should then show up in search for others on your instance in Jerboa. The only thing that can block instances is other instances.
