My account is 5 days old. I find subscribing to other communities pretty simple? On the website, I click on "Communitys" and open the list of available communities. Just click on the subscribe button and you're done.
Yeah, but that one only shows local communities AFAIK. I also find it a bit of a hassle if I see a recommendation for a community on another instance, and want to subscribe.
It shows some remote communities, but far from all of them. I think it's either based on other people in your server having subscribed to one, or opt-in at the admin level.
I've had to manually find my way to several communities I was interested in.
This seems likely, because I also read that you can’t go directly via link through your own instance, unless your instance already “knows” about the community.
Don't you have 3 buttons (subscribed/local/all) for sorting in your community view? "All" shows me all available communities and I just search keywords after that.
I do, but I think it only shows communities from other instances that your instance already “knows” about.
Ah got ya. Yeah then this needs improvement.
