how to federate with other instances?

How do I federate with other instances?

  1. I started a new instance
  2. created an admin user and subscribed to a few communities
  3. one pinned post from another instance shows up in my feed, but no others
  4. searching for other communities on other instances does nothing

any tips?

it answers your question. you don't expect me to spoon feed you, do you? learn how to read documentations

I don't see any posts even when clicking your link and browsing your instance directly, maybe the post you made is private or something? Or is it a bot post and you have bot posts hidden by default for new/anonymous users?

Edit: I just made a post and now that shows up
