This suddenly does not work
edit:
It looks like the problem is on lemmy.ml, not lemmy.world
Does not work either.

There is not
That should be the first thing new users see. But also, it doesn’t go as far as I’m imagining. I’m imagining more of a wiki, with every single instance, with a description of what kind of content goes on that instance. What is that instance’s personality?
And then again for each individual community. You’d know which communities are active, and which not if the wiki doesn’t even have anyone that updates the wiki.
Well that removes a HUGE source of potential that Lemmy could have. It would be the second most useful new feature they could implement.
There is a weekly thread on [email protected] to promote active communities
And that’s great. Thats one way to promote the new communities. Smaller communities as they’re just starting out need all the help they can get. I fully appriciate that it exists.
What I’m suggesting would be in addition to that, and it would promote ALL communities. Big and small. It could even have a search bar, where you tell the guide what topics you’re interested in, and it could return a list of all communities that fit your search, sorted by big to small.
So, my idea is a different kind of tool. Both should exist, but you would use them for different purposes.
So like https://lemmyverse.net/communities ?
@[email protected] ?
No. You don’t stay logged in when you go there.
Right now, I can click along the top of the page on Lemmy.World "communities. If I do, it takes me to a list of all the communities on Lemmy.World.
I can’t go to another instance directly, and click communities while also being signed in. I can search for other communities on other instances, but I can’t get a list of communities while signed in.
I should be able to go to Lemmy.Zip, and it should route me to something like Lemmy.World/Lemmy.zip so I’m viewing Lemmy.zip while still signed into Lemmy.World.
That way you can browse other instances communities and just hit subscribe without having to do the extra work of copying [email protected] then going BACK to Lemmy.World, searching for [email protected], clicking the search result, and THEN you’re inside the community while still signed in.
It would save several steps, plus retain my settings as I do it, and make Lemmy seem like a more seamless experience. Rather than a hodgepodge of various patched together pieces cosplaying as a website.
There is a button on the right to set your home instance. If you set it, you’ll get to the community from your instance
Ok…that did nothing. I’m not logged in. My settings aren’t loaded. The little home button turned green…but nothing changed.
