I noticed that some instances put a registration wall behind their communities. If you are registered in instance A, you can search for a specific community in instance B but cannot see the full list of communities there. Is there a workaround (besides asking someone from B to give a list of the instance)?

    Haha, you got me. Yeah, they are mostly the nsfw communities. But what is a man without his urges and what is an instance which can’t list its communities? It’s just weird.

      Make sure your account has ‘show nsfw content’ turned on to view nsfw communities your instance knows about in the search.

        Yeah, that is already turned on. That is part of what made me confused.

      Which specific nsfw communities? So I can, you know, avoid them.

        Mostly https://lemmynsfw.com There are some niche instances I saw thrown around but if you have a specific kink you have to look for yourself using the search feature. If you search for your kink and a community exists about it, it should show up.
