Is there a way to show all communities from a specific instance within lemmy.world? (lemmy.world)

Hey everyone, so I've started to familiarize myself with the lemmy and fediverse systems and I was wondering if it was possible to filter the community search to show all communities from a specific instance?

In essence I would like to subscribe to several communities located on the programmer.dev instance yet when searching for @programmer.dev you are presented with no results. Only when you search for a single community that you know is part of another instance will it show.

I normally go to the instance in the browser and tap on communities.

yea, currently I have programming.dev open and searching there to then search on .world

Interesting though, when I did a search for "unity" it didn't show the community at all in the .world search and I had to instead manually type lemmy.world/c/unity@programming.dev to get it to show
