How do I federate with other instances?

  1. I started a new instance
  2. created an admin user and subscribed to a few communities
  3. one pinned post from another instance shows up in my feed, but no others
  4. searching for other communities on other instances does nothing

any tips?

    I don’t see any posts even when clicking your link and browsing your instance directly, maybe the post you made is private or something? Or is it a bot post and you have bot posts hidden by default for new/anonymous users?

    Edit: I just made a post and now that shows up
