I created my account at sh.itjust.works but I don't fully understand Lemmy yet. Finding communities seems confusing.

You have basic serach here: https://browse.feddit.de/ they index all communities on known instances.

Thanks! And to participate in a community from another instance, do I need to visit it using my instance? Or can I log in in different instances using the same account?

Log into your own instance, and use that to navigate and you will be able to do everything

The search there is awful. They look at the title of the community but not its url name.

Like https://lemmy.ml/c/habs doesn't show up if you look for habs but show up if you look for Les Canadiens de Montréal

+1 for sh.itjust.works no wait for approval and a bit active. I tried to start a community but it didn't work, but then I searched for the communit (audiobooks) and there was one already on lemmy.ml so all good in the end!
