browsing non-local instances locally
If I have an account on one instance [lemm.ee] is there a way to browse another instance [lemmy.world] locally without creating an account in that instance or going to my browser and typing in the url?
As far as I know, you don't need an account on lemmy.world, with your current account you can subscribe to communities, vote, comment, etc., on all instances.
His point was that he wants to visit local feed of another instance we are federating with
"how"?
Slightly different but related issue here - how can I use Jerboa to subscribe to a community I 'only' have the link of, like https://some.instance/c/aCommunity?
Searching for 'aCommunity', '[email protected]' or putting the URL in the search field doesn't show me any results.
That's not the point, and I was using lemmy.world purely as an example. If I see a new and novel instance, I'd like to be able to explore it locally (look at that instance's posts and communities alone) within jerboa. Let's say I'm into arts and crafts and there is an instance that focuses on that and I want to look around to see what people are talking about and if there is a community dedicated to cross stitch that looks like 8-bit supermario stills.
I don't think it's possible right now, maybe that could be requested on an app.
This. You have to search for the community in the web interface using [email protected] formatted. Once you open the community you can sub. Once subbed you will see the community in your sub feed like all the others.
