The way Lemmy works right now is you search a community in your instance for it to then get shown, so you need to first discover that community from elsewhere. With that in mind, what are some growing communities that you discovered that could get some more love?
That’s actually not true! If you format the links like this:
/c/news@lemmy.pineapplemachine.com, like I did, then anyone who clicks on them will be brought to the community on the same instance they’re viewing the post from. (At least, assuming that the community has been searched for and synced on the instance already.)
