New here. Just wondered how i go about looking for communities on other instances. When I go to search the knly one it shows me for lemmy.world.
Also, how do I open lemmy links such as “[email protected]” on android without getting asked to open it in another app? Edit: nevermind, found out its a slightly issue and that it’s been worked on. I really should’ve spent a few extra seconds looking. I’ll leave it in case another new person sees it

A good starting point is to search lemmyverse.net/communities and then search for the community within Liftoff. If you find a community such as, say, “news” hosted at lemmy.world then search for [email protected] (including the !)

When you search there’s a community tab, all communities across all instances are available. You can then join them and interact from your own instance.
Thank you, when I searched destiny2, that’s when they didn’t show up. But just using destiny showed some from other instances.
this seems to be the only way I can get this to work - if I search [email protected] in liftoff, nothing comes up. searching [email protected] (no ‘!’) then it does come up via lemmy.world and I can’t subscribe since I’m not logged in through lemmy.world. pasting that link above to access through programming.dev (my ‘home’ instance?) allows me to subscribe through the liftoff app.
I think that’s an issue with liftoff, it works fine on the web.
