Thanks, but really I mean finding the comms in other instances from within my own instance, such that I can subscribe to them remotely. Finding the comms is easy, you can just go to the other instance (eg open up lemmy.dbzer0.com) but in order to subscribe from another instance you need to go into Communities, click All, then search for them one by one. The Communities list needs a way of filtering All by instance.
Also, it would be nice if all of this could be done from within Jerboa. Jerboa only seems to search comms you’ve already subscribed to. Right now subbing to comms is best done in a web browser.
I too didn’t know what I was missing out on, since I was only initially subscribed to piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com/c/piracy so didn’t know about all the other communities in this instance coming from https://lemmy.fmhy.ml.
Yeah you can find lists of instances all over, but to subscribe to them you have to go to the instance you’re logged into, go into communities, click all and then cross reference the list and search for them one by one.
I just want to be able to browse other instances’ comms from within my own instance, so I can subscribe to them directly. A simple option of filtering the all list by instance.
I don’t know if this cat help you at all but here you got.
