There's https://lemmyverse.net/communities which will show you all the communities that exist. You can filter by instance as well.
It's a separate site though.

Select communities then select all?
nah, I want to see just the communities specifically inside one instance, like just browsing lemmy.ml and see communities (and what's trending) in lemmy.ml only without leaving lemmy.world.
edit: on that note, it'll be nice if that communities/all can be filtered
Liftoff has an all instance view you can enable if that is what you are looking for and don't mind using an app
yes, that's what's I've been using, and I know I can see posts from all instances if I just browse All instead of Local
what I'm kind of looking for (and wondering) is that a way to... uh, like, check? on another instance, and see what hot posts are trending there just on their front page without getting mixed and competing for places in /All
so for example, I'm here on lemmy.world, and after browsing a while I got curious on what's trending on sh.itjust.works, so I go to shi.tjust.works and I can see all the currently hot posts only on shit just works without me getting logged out because I have no account on shitjustworks.
in lack of better words, maybe emulating (or simulating?) a 'centralized' feel, ya feel me?
I don't believe there is a smooth way to do this at the moment without visiting the instance in question and selecting the Local feed.
You can use a link redirect script to then easily open those threads on your home instance, though.
yes, that's what i was curious about, it seems there isn't a seamless way to do this yet
Don't know about lemmy, but on kbin you can go to /d/lemmy.world to see what appears to be something like a frontpage of lemmy.world.
It's far from perfect though:
- It only shows that instance's local communities. In other words, you wouldn't see that a lemmy.world community is trending on feddit.uk without going to feddit.uk itself.
- If the lemmy server has the concept of a downvote that would reduce a post's rank, that isn't information transmitted to other instances.
- I might be mistaken here, but if I understood correctly, it only shows posts from communities that at least one user on your kbin instance is subscribed to.
- It will most likely be a bit out of date
- If the list of (de)federated instances isn't the same for your instance and the target instance, the upvotes of entire instances might not be counted for one of them.
- In future, some instances might determine ranking solely based on local votes.
Don’t know about lemmy, but on kbin you can go to /d/lemmy.world to see what appears to be something like a frontpage of lemmy.world.
This is exactly what I'm talking about, still a little janky maybe because the activitypub sites (Kbin, Lemmy, Mastodon) don't work quite the same? Maybe if it's between the same--what's the term? software?--like kbin to kbin can be more seamless.
Hope Lemmy can implement something similar in the future
