I was wondering if there's a way to view all of the communities on a server other than the one i signed up for. If not, would it be possible to link the instances' names to their communities list?

Exploring an instance local posts and communities is on the works

I cant think of a way to do this in the app, your best option (that I know of) is to go to the instance you want to see local communities for - eg: sh.itjust.works/communities - and look for the community you want and search for it in boost with the format !communityname@instancename - eg: !funny@sh.itjust.works

There's a Community list right in this apps Left side bar.

Tap left top hamburger menu for access.

They want a list of communities from another instance (singular), that list only has local and all

In the left side bar where all of your subscriptions and settings, etc. are listed, just tap on Communities for a list.

No, I meant a list like Local tab but for a different Lemmy instance.

Ahh, thought you were looking for a community list to choose from.
