Y’all should try it! I loved seeing it popping on other instances’ /instances page, and seeing it polling other communities. Also changing the background in my theme was lit.
Lemmy’s hosting documentation is a bit rough around the edges, especially the ARM situation (and its contemporary solution), so I had some extra tinkering to do. No shade at all yeah? I appreciate every bit of their work and I jotted down some points that I need to consolidate into a documentation PR soon.
Anyway, I feel like the extra on our usernames should be worn as a badge of honor you feel me? ;)
It’s actually a tool I wrote that makes use of a bot account on your own instance to add and/or subscribe to communities throughout the fediverse. I defined “best” communities as simply communities above a certain level of activity threshold (omitting ghost/unpopular communities). It doesn’t subscribe all users on your instance to the communities, but it does make such that your All feed would be vastly more populated with content.
