Hey, I'm guessing you're new today :)
You can subscribe to communities elsewhere, but you need to access them through your home instance first. There are usually instructions in the sidebar telling you the address to put into your home instance's search to find them.
However in this case since both you and I are both on lemmy.world, and I'm subbed to both of these, our instance already knows about them. Which means you don't need to do the search and can just go straight there: Gamedev, Godot
Sorry if that's super confusing, it'll make sense in no time I promise :D
So let's take https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/c/gamedev as an example, I want to access it via my home instance, which is lemmy.world (Tell me if there's a better one I should be using, lol) I can search for "gamedev" in communities and set it to all and that community shows up, but there's no option to subscribe, or anything. So, how do I access them on my own instance in this case?
