If I have an account on one instance [lemm.ee] is there a way to browse another instance [lemmy.world] locally without creating an account in that instance or going to my browser and typing in the url?

    As far as I know, you don’t need an account on lemmy.world, with your current account you can subscribe to communities, vote, comment, etc., on all instances.

      This. You have to search for the community in the web interface using [email protected] formatted. Once you open the community you can sub. Once subbed you will see the community in your sub feed like all the others.

        I’ve noticed this issue with new communities. I’d suggest wait a few hours so the instances “sync” and the community shows up in search. If that doesn’t work maybe it’s a bug.
