Is there a way to list all communities of instance B from instance A besides registering in said instance? (lemmy.world)

I noticed that some instances put a registration wall behind their communities. If you are registered in instance A, you can search for a specific community in instance B but cannot see the full list of communities there. Is there a workaround (besides asking someone from B to give a list of the instance)?

Can't you just go to that instance and list the communities there? I don't think you need an account to list the communities

Currently no, there's no way, here's the issue discussing about this
