Can't you just log in to your Lemmy instance and search the communities by clicking the communities button? You just need to look at "all" instead of "local" communities.
As a new user, what does this mean?
I already signed into an instance and created a user name and password? Do I need to join a unique instance for every community I join? Does everyone just use password managers or something like that?
No, that's what they're saying. Don't do that. Click on the magnifying glass in the top menu, and make sure that the selector that offers [Subscribed, Local, or All], choose All. That'll include communities on other instances that this instance knows about.
Maybe? I thought I read that to search for communities across all instances you have to use some external website that indexed them all (can't remember the name)
