Help with Lemmy API (mander.xyz)

I would like to be able to use the command line (curl) to get a list of communities I am currently subscribed to.

I know that there is a full-blown API, but it only briefly covers what it is possible with simple a curl request, and most of it seems to refer to an API that runs in javascript (which seems excessively complex for what I want to do?)

A simple curl request like this seems to work,

curl "https://mander.xyz/api/v3/community/list" | jq

But I wouldn't know how to make it list only communities that I subscribe to? Does anyone know more?

While this is the correct syntax, in reality the API is broken and isn't returning communities (either filtered or sorted first) by their listingtype == "Subscribed"
