https://lemm.ee/post/lemmyverse.net 404’ed for me. I think you just meant https://lemmyverse.net.
The issue isn’t really about finding communities, that’s pretty straightforward - you either click “All” and see all of them, or you go to another instance to see just theirs.
However, to subscribe to an instance you need to be logged into your own instance. What’s missing is the ability to filter the “All” list by instance. That way you can browse and discover comms from other instances, without going through the massive list of every single one.
As it stands, you have to find the instance from one page, then go back to your own instance, click communities then all and then search for each comm you want to subscribe to, one by one.
You are right, the link wasn’t right for some reasons
The issue though is finding instances on other communities when your instance doesn’t yet know about the community.
The website helps with that. And you can set you “home instance”, so the links open on your instance. https://lemmyverse.net indexes every community from all instances, to make it easier to find ones that interest you.

Ah I didn’t know that, thanks!
Thank you, that’s a great tool! Somehow, when I open a link in Jerboa it doesn’t directly open the, let’s say community for example, but rather opens the link in the internal browser, where I’m not logged in. Currently, at least, logging in doesn’t work via this internal browser. Anybody know where to report this?
Pretty sure it’s just the posts’ formatting, the URL https://lemmyverse.net should work.
Not sure where to post my question, as it would seem I’m having trouble with joining communities and creating posts in communities from Lemmy.ml and several others? When I check my “Communities” section, there are a bunch I’ve joined about a day ago, and still are on Pending (even communities from Lemmy.world). And the post I just tried to create on Lemmy.ml just keeps spinning, without either posting nor finally timing out (I guess it’s timed out by now, but no obvious feedback from the UI). So…am I missing any steps?
