I added a feature to Tesseract UI a while back that lets you browse other instances and resolve/subscribe to communities mostly transparently. It's been extremely helpful, but there's room for improvement. Still, I'd like to see that added to other frontends.

My improvement plan for that is to utilize the data dumps from the Lemmyverse explorer (https://lemmyverse.net/communities) so that the UI can have fediverse-wide (more or less) community searching. Sadly, that's been on the back burner for some time.
