I like being on lemmy and I’ve managed to find piefed instances I have subscribed to so they’re part of my feed, but can anyone tell me if it’s possible to view piefed instances in my “all” view that I’m not subscribed to? I want to be seeing eveeeerything! Thank you!
I realised the problem! I was using Sync which doesn’t seem to support Piefed. I’ve just installed Summit and I can now see all the Piefed communities in my search. Thanks for your help!

It is possible. Piefed and Lemmy federate together.
I feel like they should appear automatically in that case, but they’re not.
Piefed communities are less active, and less likely to trend generally.
Ah OK, maybe that’s it - thank you!
Also, “all” is not all. It’s only the communities that others on your instance have subscribed to.
I realised actually that when I search through my federated instances list, not a single piefed instance appears… :/
need to make sure you have selected All when searching. I find piefed instances occasionally, like the TV & movies ones are pretty active I think.
