Populating self-hosted Lemmy instance (feddit.de)

Hello!

I've been thinking about hosting my own Lemmy instance, but wonder if there's an easy way to federate with other communities/instances. I like to browse the "All" tab, but that tab would be empty on a self-hosted instance I imagine.

Is there a way to get all communities of certain instances in my All feed? Or do I have to search up each individual community manually once?

Only three options for now:

Subscribed: only what you subscribed to
Local: that instance only, empty if there isn’t a single community
All: shows all the federated

So all should be showing all from my understanding

That's exactly what happen in my personal instance.
