While browsing through the 'All' subscription feed I'll occasionally see a post from an instance that looks interesting to me, for example programming.dev, and I would like to browse the communities that are hosted on that instance.

The search functionality within the app only allows for me to find communities with programming.dev in the community name. Currently I have to navigate to the instance directly in a browser using the httx://*/communities?listingType=Local endpoint to view all its local communities.

Even if incorporating such a view is a possibility I'm not sure where you would integrate it in to the UI. Maybe an Instance sub-menu with a nested Local Communities menu item underneath the existing Community menu item in the ... Options menu at the top of the screen while viewing a post?

On a semi-related note, would it be possible to add an option to view the community sidebar while viewing a post and its comments? I currently have to scroll up to the top of the post, click on the link to follow though to the community directly, then open the sidebar from the Options menu there.

Yeah I guess it wouldn’t let you specifically see the communities it would only let you view the local feed with the way it is.
