If you have enabled federation on your instance, all you have to do is go to search and put the community url of the instance and search for it. Your instance should be able to fetch that community and show it to you. After that, you can subscribe it from your own instance.
Hope this helps :)
I do already know how to do that, but I'm mainly wondering about being able to view an entire other instance's community list. I mean, yeah, I guess I can work around that, and that is what I've been doing, but it's just a little clunky to have to go to another instance logged out, copy the url, and then go back in through my own instance. There's really no other way?
I guess for that both the instances need to explicitly allow federation in settings. Once it is done, both instances will be able to see community from each other.
However I am new to this just like you so possibly the veterans here might know more than us :D
