I can't help but wonder if this would be better served at the client level. Either way I miss this feature.
Voat was a replica of Reddit in design. One centralized server. We would have ended up in the same crappy place even if that were a success because at some point they would have wanted to monetize it also.
You have to do some reading and learn about the technology behind Lemmy and federation to understand.

Use the LCS app to add communities automatically to your instance. I was quite disappointed to see that I had to manually add every community and wouldn't be able to have the classic ALL page I was used to but this solved that. It runs on a schedule and automatically adds communities based on your criteria.
Man how many people even know what this is lol
