I’d love to find interesting things to subscribe to.
I just clicked “Communities” at the top of the page, then selected “All” instead of “Local”… seemed to show everything sorted by number of subscribed users… in fact I literally JUST did this and that’s why I’m on this community right now.
Related question: How to join a community once you found it? Asking specifically for people coming from a tiny instance.
For example, I know that https://beehaw.org/c/news is a thing. But when I try to find it, I get ‘No Results’. How do I force my instance to discover news@beehaw.org? I tried adding a bang to both strings to no avail.
Same issue with a couple other communities I found but cannot find from my home instance, which is federated to all but https://lemmygrad.ml/.
