For me its having a single instance that indexes all the communites to which all other instances can then pull that information from so when I go searching for communities the Iโ€™ll have access to every single one with needing to post the entire URL in the search bar

you are viewing a single comment's thread

That works easily when you want to join communities already on your instance. But if you want to search for other communities you need to go to https://browse.feddit.de/, search for them there, copy the url, then join. Also you cant sort that list by anything, you kinda need to know what you are looking for.

Its....a bit too complicated. I'm sure it will get better with time.
