Is there a way to see what communities are on other instances? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

Is there a search parameter to get a list of communities?

It was asked before and it is not easily possible because of how Lemmy works. Your home instance only federates to communities another user from your instance has searched before and subscribed. If that didn't happen, the community is unknown to your instance and therefore can't be shown. You can of course get a list of communities when accessing an instance via Lemmy UI through itself, so by accessing https://lemmy/ world for example. To integrate that view into Voyager, I guess you would need to implement some kind of "guest system". AFAIK it is not implemented atm, but have a look on the repo, I bet there exists an issue addressing this already.
