Or just subscribing to the community should work.

[–] UnkTheUnk@midwest.social 2 points 2 years ago

I was asking because some communities were not visible from the "communities" list to subscribe to things

[–] Sal@mander.xyz 2 points 2 years ago

Yes, but the first person in the instance to subscribe needs to go the source instance website and manually fetch the community by pasting the URL into the search box. Communities are not automatically discovered cross-instance.
