I'm wondering if it's possible to see the local feed of another instance from the one I'm using. I'm interested in exploring content from other instances without having to visit every single community, but I'm not sure how to do it. I've tried searching for a way to do this on the documentation and using the Lemmy search, but I haven't found any clear instructions. Does anyone know how to see the local feed of another instance? Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated!

You can see content on the local feed of an Instance without creating an account there. So just head over there, flip to local and browse for a bit. You won't be able to interact, but you can scroll and read.

I assume you're on a desktop? I'm using the jerboa app and I'm not able to do that.

Ah, yeah. Apps are still adding stuff. Try mobile web browser.

Some apps support it but not jerboa. Liftoff does, pretty connect and voyager can.

Surf to other instance, press local? No need to log in if you just want to surf, I think.
