Not really, just subscribe to communities outside of your instance.
Like !osvaldo12@lemmy.fancywhale.ca. just subscribing to this from another instance and getting updates on your account regardless where it's from. Sorry if you already knew that.
Gotcha, I understand and will do that!
Use lemmyverse.net
Click the home icon and set your home instance and then search for whatever you want. All links will open in your home instance and you can then just subscribe.
I'm probably missing something easy, but where do you "just subscribe?"
There are a few communities that show up in lemmyverse, but aren't showing up when I search in my app (Jerboa)
Open the link from lemmyverse in a browser tab and click Subscribe. If on mobile you might have to expand the sidebar first. Then go back to Jerboa.
Awesome. Thank you. I was just missing opening the sidebar.
Now I just have to start contributing content to the community I just subscribed to that has 9 users. ๐
