I tried subbing to the one on Lemmy.world, but nobody’s home. Perhaps there is one someone can rec from another instance? Any help is appreciated!

    I tried to subscribe their, but it says I’m not logged in, and I have a feeling I’m not grasping how this works. I assumed because I am logged in on lemmy.world that when I click subscribe I was already logged in, but apparently not. Am I supposed to create a new account for each instance or each subscription or is there another way to do this?

      To cross instances on your community, you need to stay on your community and access it from there.

      Copy the URL of the community you want to subscribe to, then paste it into the search on lemmy.world. It’ll take a moment, but the community will show up in the search, then you can join it.

      I think there’s a new way to list remote communities without all the steps, but I haven’t mastered it yet.
