let's spread the love so other instances/communities can be discovered easier

here are a few I recommend:

!retrocomputing@lemmy.sdf.org

!selfhosted@lemmy.world

!steamdeck@sopuli.xyz

!hockey@lemmy.ca

!moviesandtv@lemmy.film

Does anyone know how to add new instances to the Lemmy Community Browser? It doesn't have the one I'm from nor the communities from it. Are they automatically scraping communities somehow or is there a dev we can ask them to add new communities and instances to?

https://browse.feddit.de/

I'm having trouble with this too, except some communities in the instance show up, and some don't.

!animemidriff@lemmynsfw.com doesn't show up in the community browser, despite smaller comms made around the same period like !animefeet@lemmynsfw.com showing up just fine.

So I've found that lemmyverse.net is more consistent and works much better than browse.feddit.de as a lemmy community browser

Right? It seems so random. I wish I could find out who made it so I can ask them.

[–] Kayzels@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Yeah, I noticed something similar. And occasionally it seems like instances disappear from it. I noticed that beehaw communities showed up a few days ago, but they didn't today.

I also would like to know this

How old is your instance, are you sure it’s set up correctly? Are you visiting and subbing from your instance to others? I think all that helps. Our instance is also very new and it seems to be federated ok as far as I can tell. And with a lot of connecting to other communities I think our “All” feed is working.

No idea, I didn't make it. Probably about a week old if I'd guess. I am visiting and subbing to other instances. The All feed seems to be working okay, too. It's federated as far as I can tell, but still doesn't appear in that Lemmy Community Browser site: https://browse.feddit.de/
