Hmm, you’re doing it right, when you click through from the community search there should be a big subscribe button in the sidebar. If not, I’m honestly not sure why that would be!
Figured it out! You click on the result, and then you’ll be taken to the community, but opened in the same instance. From there, you can hit subscribe!
Yep! Someone actually made a bookmarklet yesterday so if you find yourself accidentally having opened a remote community link you can hit the bookmark to be taken back to the lemmy.world version…hang on…

javascript:(function() {const myInst="lemmy.world";let currUrl=window.location.toString().split("/");let currInst=currUrl[2];currUrl[2]=myInst;let newUrl=currUrl.join("/")+"@"+currInst;window.location=newUrl;})()
Just drag that code up to your bookmarks bar, it really helps take a lot of the jank out of things.
