Hey everyone, so I’ve started to familiarize myself with the lemmy and fediverse systems and I was wondering if it was possible to filter the community search to show all communities from a specific instance?

In essence I would like to subscribe to several communities located on the programmer.dev instance yet when searching for @programmer.dev you are presented with no results. Only when you search for a single community that you know is part of another instance will it show.

You are viewing a single thread.

In the upper right of that page, there’s a little button that looks like a house. If you click on it, it should prompt you to select your home instance. After you do that, it should make the links to all the communities you see listed on that page open within lemmy.world like https://lemmy.world/c/python@programming.dev for example
