The second entry down has discovered the secret for subscriber growth: Have a hangup, fail to properly articulate your reasons why, watch as people come by to disagree with you.
Federation can seem wonky at times. I click on lots of links to Communities that no-one from my instance has visited before, and usually see the Posts - maybe not the Comments or the Upvotes, but I see the Posts. For indigenous@hexbear, my instance has no posts, feddit.nl has no posts, lemmy.world can't find the community. If I get the crowbar out (by which I mean copying an absolute link to one of the posts on hexbear.net/c/indigenous and searching for it from my home instance), I can bring things through.
Yesterday's question about lemmy.world's API went about as well as expected. Although it meant that I've discovered that if you reply to someone, and they delete their comment, it deletes all the replies to it. Maybe a better system than seeing a bunch of inscrutable replies to [deleted], but it'll teach me not to have a whole other conversation with someone else beneath another person's comment.
What's that? There's a Community for Mass Effect. Ah, go on then: subscribed.
When .world solves their API issues, have you considered adding another section as a "trending communities from smaller instances" showcase that excludes the big general purpose instances such as .world and .ml and whatnot? Smaller instances are already at a disadvantage just by the sheer size of .world and bringing special attention towards them could be useful in terms of encouraging federation.
It's certainly worth considering. Looking at earlier posts, when .world was active, their communities tended to dominate (so much so that I decided to reduce clutter by not even putting 'lemmy.world' next to their entries)
I'm a bit wary about adding stuff though: on a desktop top screen, a new section in a post looks fine; on mobile (where most people will likely see it), it can all start to look a bit indecipherable.
