Folks that have been here awhile probably already know this, but may have forgotten and new folks may not know it, so a reminder that we build the All feed together:

These previous ways will only show communities that are already known to the instance. Especially if you joined a small or inactive Lemmy instance, there will be few communities to discover.

With that in mind, for intrepid explorers here, I’d highly recommend looking for communities via Lemmyverse and joining them from here to make the All feed more varied than just Lemmy.World’s communities.

I post this as I was browsing through All the other day and noticed it looked like I may as well have remained browsing Local for how few remote communities I was seeing. And that’s not for a lack of interesting communities on other instances either!

Although...

…That’s not to say it might not also be due to a lack of activity in them, but that can be helped by looking for communities first before making them locally, I think!

    So, I’m using lemm.ee and the Memmy app, when I click on a community in the link you posted, it shows me the community but I also have to log in to subscribe. Using the lemm.ee login doesn’t seem to work (I’m trying to sub to [email protected]). Should my account be in the lemmy.ml instance?

      I’m not familiar with Memmy, so there may be some differences in navigating through it to subscribe to communities. If you can, you may want to try to copy the url or [email protected], or simply tap that previous link, to go to it from lemm.ee and subscribe.

      You may also set your home instance in Lemmyverse by tapping the home icon & typing in lemm.ee, then the links should open in lemm.ee with you still signed in.

        I’m receiving an error when I tap the link. This might be a Memmy issue. I did see they’ll add instance search in a future update, so that might do it. Thanks!

          Most of the apps are having weird issues with opening links at the moment, which isn’t helped by the fact that the link formats keep changing in subtle ways from one Lemmy release to another! It’s fun to see all the swift progress but definitely makes it confusing for new lemmings.
