Hello!
I’ve been thinking about hosting my own Lemmy instance, but wonder if there’s an easy way to federate with other communities/instances. I like to browse the “All” tab, but that tab would be empty on a self-hosted instance I imagine.
Is there a way to get all communities of certain instances in my All feed? Or do I have to search up each individual community manually once?
Subscribed and All will show the same for a selfhosted single instance, as ‘All’ will only show communities, that someone on the server is subscribed to. Which is only those of yourself if you are the only person on the server.
How do 3rd party hosted instances show more than subscriptions in the all tab?
I would say in that case they have multiple users, then the tab will show all topics that any of them is subscribed to. It will also show topics that were subscribed to in the past or searched for I think.
