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.
I love this one; super convenient!
Yeah this one is nice on the eye balls
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.
I would really like something like r/all - that's all I ever really used while on Reddit.
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.
You'll have to use the search option and hope for good results. The fragmentation of communities seems to be a rising topic these days. While it's good that posts and comments are fragmented, I think personal feeds should be consolidatable.
Idk but i am also curious
You can only subscribe to communities individually, and as of this current moment, there is nothing like the "relays" that other Fediverse platforms have to push known instances to your own instance.
The way federation works is that an instance must explicitly search for an ActivityPub compatible instance and then start requesting data from it, there are no central locations that will provide an instance with all of the known Fediverse.
No, right now there's no easy way to do multiple subscriptions at once. Features like that are being discussed heavily right now, but nothing's been implemented yet.
maybe hop to https://lemmy.world/c/newcommunities for discovery. @Virtim@lemmy.virtim.dev try: https://lemmy.world/c/devops@lemmy.ml ?
If you want to see all of them, you can change the setting from "subscribed" to "all"
