not sure if I'm even doing this right, but I'm trying to find more subscriptions. how do i search my own instance for communities to join? how do i look outside of my instance for communities to join? i feel like i knew how once, but now I'm lost.

i use jerboa, if that helps? TIA.

You can search for them, the search function will show all the communities in your instance and the federated instances.

What do you use? Mobile or app? I can't tell you how to search on mlem, but on browser on the sidebar from your instance, there'll be a magnifier glass icon. Once you click it, you can search a topic by all, or a specific instance. If you're just on Jerboa, on top of your communities tab, there's a search bar, just write what you want there, and it'll give all the matching results from every source available to you.

I find the process momuch more efficient on the browser, I have to say, it gives you a lot more info.
