I’ve recently spun up my own lemmy instance just so i can get a cool username with the domain, but it seems that i have to manually go and search every community before i can see posts from them in the all tab. Is there a way i can just see all communities from all the instances i am federated with? Is there also a way to just browse what communities exist on those instances without leaving my oen. Right now i go to the websites for those instances to browse, then go back to my own and search for the post again if i want to comment or subscribe.
Probably not the answer you want to hear but I’ve been using this site to browse communities: https://lemmyverse.net/communities
Unfortunately you still need to copy-paste their addresses to add them to your instance.
You have to search the specific community from your instance search bar. It might not work at first but refresh and search again and it will show up. With instances you’re already federated it might show up automatically. Can also try the “All” tab, stuff show up there from random communities from instances you federated with sometimes.
Edit: try this
Someone on your instance needs to have subscribed to the community for it to show up in your all tab. There isn’t a way to see them without subscribing.
