techsupport and homenetworking

Two subreddits I used to be very active in were for techsupport and networking/home networking. Anyone know if there's Lemmy communities for the same?

Also, related, is there a way to list communities available from a specific instance? Like if I wanted to see all communities local to Lemmy.world or something (that's not my local instance), can I do that? If so, how?

I'm still getting used to the fediverse way of doing things, I love it here, I'm just having trouble getting myself up to speed relative to all that I was subscribed to on Reddit.

TIA

Click on Communities at the top of the page, https://lemm.world/communities (make sure the selected tab is Local), though unfortunately it's a paged list and not all communities in one page.

check out https://lemmyverse.net/communities for searching for communities, though not all will show up. You can also use a specific instance to search for communities like - https://lemmy.world/search?q=networking&type=Communities (make sure the All tab is selected)

Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !techsupport@lemmy.world, !networking@sh.itjust.works, !networking@programming.dev, !homenetworking@lemmy.beyondcombustion.net
