Adding new communities is a bit of a pain due to having to copy and paste the links into the search page.

I was thinking it would be much easier if one could have a button on lemmyverse.net or browse.feddit.de next to the name of the community to open the community in your instance’s search page.

Example url:

[email protected] would open up in:

https://user.instance/search/q/!community%40instance.domain/type/All/sort/TopAll/listing_type/All/community_id/0/creator_id/0/page/1

Where user.instance is a variable that every user can fill in themselves in the script or in some other way.

I hope this is possible. Thank you <3

    Lemmyverse already lets you. The “Home” button allows you to set the URL of your home instance.

      Just checked and it’s unfortunately not the same. It opens up the community in your home instance which will give you a 404 if it isn’t already discovered.

      I was referring to the search page in order to discover it.
