minus-squareRimulinkfedilink3•edit-24 months agoYes. Go to Topics -> All communities to see a list of all communities (most of them on Lemmy instances) PieFed.social knows about. If the one you’re after is not listed you can add it at https://piefed.social/community/add_remote If you have an existing Lemmy account and want to use your PieFed account to follow all the same communities, you can: https://piefed.social/post/5291
