How to follow a Lemmy instance or community within Ice Cubes app? (lemmy.ml)

The Mastodon iOS app Ice Cubes allows users to add and follow timelines from other mastodon instances other than the signed in one. Is there a way to follow a Lemmy instance or community from within Ice Cubes? I’m unsure what the Lemmy url structure is for instances and communities.

The fedi address should look like community@instance.name for example this community address is lemmy_support@lemmy.ml

It should show up in mastodon after a search.

on lemmy you can put an ! in front of it to link to a community, linking to a user with @ just like on mastodon. From mastodon searching for @ community works because mastodon doesn't accept the ! kind of search

Thank you. Now trying to figure out why Icecubes isn’t allowing it as a saved timeline.

Maybe it's checking for if it's an actual Mastodon instance and recognizes that it's another software so it prevents it?
