What is your favourite Lemmy community, which is not on lemmy.ml?
How does one follow a community from another instance. for instance, beehaw's gaming community I would like to follow, but when i am there, it makes be create a separate account.
In addition to what @Barbarian@lemmy.ml mentioned about changing the filter and searching, you can link it from your own instance like so:
https://lemmy.ml/c/gaming@beehaw.org
You can also grab the URL to any community or post on another instance, return to your own instance, and paste the URL into the search bar. If you're the first person to ever search for that server it might not find anything at first, but it'll fetch the data and probably work in a couple minutes.
I think you may be able to use relative links, eg:
gaming@beehaw.org
^ That one is done with [gaming@beehaw.org](/c/gaming@beehaw.org)
I don't think !gaming@beehaw.org works alone though?
@1rre @Kamirose It probably varies per backend, but via Mastodon I can confirm that you'd want to search the relative link instead of the !gaming@beehaw link.
Also for replying to this comment I copied the comment URL & pasted it in the search of the Mastodon instance I'm replying from. We'll see if this gets through, I guess!
