A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

You can do exactly that. Use the search function at the top of Beehaw, specifically type in the URL of the community like this: !ttrpgs@lemmy.blahaj.zone
This way you'll reach that community while still "on" Beehaw and can subscribe to it. From there, you can head to your subscribed communities from your profile to make new posts or whatever.
I don't think you understood what I was suggesting.
I don't use Beehaw (my instance is lemm.ee), but let's pretend I do. My whole premise is I don't always start there. Like if run into a community on Lemmy Explorer or some other site (maybe a google search?), I can easily find myself on a community on a remote server.
For example, can you click here: https://lemmy.world/c/nostupidquestions
What do you see? Any way to subscribe for you? It just tells you to go back home and search for it I would love there to be a browser extension or plugin that automatically recognizes the community's instance and address and sends it back home to Beehaw for you to subscribe. Can be via API or just redirect you to Beehaw's view of it
