I searched for and found a community on another instance, but I don't see any options to subscribe.. could someone ELI5? I must be missing something obvious.

I'm using Firefox via Android if that makes a difference?

Go to Communities then search and type in the full name e.g. !asklemmy@lemmy.ml

Click search and wait a moment

To know the name look at the front page for the community and its name will be under the display name (will start with a bang)
