As of right now I don’t have a very intuitive system for this unless you are logged into the instance in which you can ant to browse communities.
If you are logged into the instance you wish to browse, you can open the Browse section in the Subscriptions list. From there you set the filter mode to Local. This will provide a list of communities on local to the instance.
If you are not logged into the instance you wish to browse, then you can go to the search tab and open Lemmy Explorer from there you can search for the instance you wish to browse i.e. lemm.ee and browse communities for that instance.
I’m hoping to implement better search filtering in the future so you can actually filter by criteria like the instance, community, user, etc.
Yeah, the subscriptions feed has a lot of useful shortcuts, but it can be easy to neglect due to its placement.
I’d love to add alphabetical sorting, however I’m limited to the options provided by the API. The only way I could offer alphabetical sorting as of now, would be to load all communities from the instance and then sort them. This would be a lot of API requests and I don’t want to put that strain on servers.
