There's a comprehensive list of Lemmy apps being curated here.
Right now I'm using Liftoff.
Is there a way to search for other communities in other instances without having to add those instances on Liftoff? For example, I'm on sh.itjust.works and want to search for /c/Canada on lemmy.ca. The only way to do that is to first add lemmy.ca and then I can search.
Yeah this confused me at first too. You don't need to add other instances. You just go to the search tab, and search via sh.itjust.works as normal, and it will show communities from anywhere. I am also on sh.itjust.works and can verify I was able to find /c/Canada on lemmy.ca that way. :)
