Don’t click the title, click the text starting wirh ! (like !linux@lemmy.ml) and paste it into search on lemmy.world. It will find that community and you can then click it and join.
Edit: If others are reading this, you can click the home button and setup your home instance, thay way the links will correctly go to your instance and the whole process is much better!
yes, unfortunately finding, joining and linking to other communities across instances kinda blows now, but given how new lemmy is i think that will improve over time!
I’ve been using this userscript to redirect all links to my instance. If you’ve never installed a userscript, it’s pretty easy, you just need to install the Tampermonkey browser extension (there are others but it’s the one I use), then click the greasyfork link in the post I linked, and click install.
Noob here. When I click the link of a page there I am not logged in. How can I watch and reply to this from lemmy.world?

Thank you! It worked, though quite cumbersome

You can also set your home instance and the links will open on the one that you choose. :)
How do you set your home instance?
Top right - home icon
What does set your home instance mean?
Set the instance you have an account on/login to day to day.
