Best thing I've seen for this kind of search so far:
https://lemmyverse.net/communities
Click the filter instances button, deselect all, select just the instance you want to see communities from.
If you also set your home instance as lemmy.world in the upper right, then it will make the links for all the communities open within lemmy.world so you can subscribe to them from there.
what do you mean by setting home instance in upper right?
In the upper right of that page, there's a little button that looks like a house. If you click on it, it should prompt you to select your home instance. After you do that, it should make the links to all the communities you see listed on that page open within lemmy.world like https://lemmy.world/c/python@programming.dev for example
ahhhh, understood. I thought the house thing was someting related to the lemmy instances. I didn't realize you were talking about https://lemmyverse.net/communities
I normally go to the instance in the browser and tap on communities.
yea, currently I have programming.dev open and searching there to then search on .world
Interesting though, when I did a search for "unity" it didn't show the community at all in the .world search and I had to instead manually type lemmy.world/c/unity@programming.dev to get it to show
I just had the exact same question in my head.
