This is my first day in the Fediverse, and I'm building out my sub list in Lemmy right now. I noticed that searching for Communities only looks within the instance that I'm logged into. Is there any easy way to search across all available Lemmy servers for Communities?

Thanks. I've tried all of the options suggested in this thread so far, and this one seems to be the best for search/discovery.

It's the hack for all social media. Think of it like planting seeds in a garden or starting a motor. Once you get the inertia going, it takes care of itself and then it's just matienence. Trying to do it here for my little chosen homeserver. :)

Lemmyverse includes Kbin instances as well, you just have to select to look for them in the upper right. I suppose there's a reason we can't see both at the same time.

You can just pop the kbin url at the end as you would a lemmy instance: !FindAKbin@kbin.social

How often do this update? There's a bunch of new communities missing

How often do this update?

Every 12 hours, in theory, but I've seen it go a couple days without updating.

Last update of lemmy.tf was Wednesday, let's hope it grabs it again in the next sweep.
