I'm running a standalone Lemmy instance, but I'm not planning to develop or grow a community on said instance since it's mostly to practice my infra and DevOps skills. I would, however, like to subscribe to all communities on other instances, for example, on lemmy.world and several others. Is there an easy way, or can I only subscribe to each community individually?

Personally, I'd like a comprehensive list of all subscribable places on here, and on other instances as well. Maybe I'm just too new and don't currently know how to use the Jerboa app, but eh.

The Jerboa app isn't amazing for discovering new communities, but the browser version allows you to browse subscribable communities via the hamburger icon at the top right. I used that when I first signed up and subscribed to my first load of communities

This is super helpful

Check out https://browse.feddit.de/ , it's an excellent place to start! I'm not an Android user, so I don't have any experience with Jerboa, and not sure how it would fit into subscribing processes there.

This is another one I've found which I like the UI of https://lemmyverse.net/communities

It'll be great when Jerboa could use the links to subscribe in app.

Yeah this one is nice on the eye balls

[–] Virtim@lemmy.virtim.dev 4 points 2 years ago

I love this one; super convenient!

Thanks for this

I like the User Interface, but multiple Communities that exist for a few days and show up on browse.feddit don't show up.

[–] Hazen@lemmy.world 13 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I would really like something like r/all - that's all I ever really used while on Reddit.

[–] CleanDefinition@lemmy.world 19 points 2 years ago

That's the front page, just select All instead of Local.

Check https://lemmy.directory/ out.

This is part of their announcement:

Our goal is to try to provide a feed of the widest range of Lemmy communities possible, by subscribing our Lemmy instance to nearly every community on other Lemmy instances. This aggregation of communities can be seen by browsing our “All” feed. You can imagine us trying to be like reddit.com/r/all.
