Yes. Because there’s no centralised list of communities, searching is extremely difficult.
Or if not, very time consuming.
Following every iteration of every node.
The best way I can think of at the moment is a searchable website that gives you a link to click to seamlessly subscribe to them directly.
It’d be fine if the website is user submitted rather than having to interrogate all the servers on the back end, because the results would have seen a human eye and be better quality.
You are not logged in. However you can subscribe from another Fediverse account, for example Lemmy or Mastodon. To do this, paste the following into the search field of your instance: !selfhosted@lemmy.world
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don’t control.
Rules:
Be civil: we’re here to support and learn from one another. Insults won’t be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
No spam posting.
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it’s not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
Don’t duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

When it does all work both smoothly and seemlessly then we’ll be golden.

Yeh. I think there are websites that do that already. I haven’t really looked. But has to be some form of centralised list.
