How to see every sub under an instance? - Lemmy Today

Instead of just searching the specific name of a sub what if I want to see every sub that’s contained within an instance such as lemmy.world for example no I’m not part of lemmy.world but as part of the instance I’m a part of I can see every sub under it in a neat list can you only do that if you’re part of the instance?

Edit: for a better method, see this comment below

You would need to navigate to that instance on desktop

For example, as others have said:

You can’t see it from your instance because not every community will be pulled. A community only starts federating to your instance after someone on your instance subscribes to it

That sounds like a really bad way to do this.

If not, someone could just set up a rogue instance, create fake communities on it, then start pushing a million pictures per minute to every Lemmy instance, exhausting their resources
