Ok got it. I think most instances seem to have a “main” community that is subscribed to everything local, but it’s kinda difficult to browse and subscribe to remote communities from being logged in on lemmy.world without switching back and forth to the remote instance if that makes sense.

For instance (pun intended) if I wanted to cherry pick different communities from lemmy instance A’s local stuff, while I’m logged into lemmy instance B, and lemmy instance A doesn’t have a “main” community where I can see everything from lemmy instance A then I have to switch back and forth.

It’s not too difficult especially on desktop but I kinda wish I could have ‘lemmy.world/local@beehaw.org’ and it would show me everything that is local to beehaw in one feed. I understand that might not make sense design or philosophy-wise though.
