If I host an instance, would it have to find all the communities from scratch?

I believe if you host an instance it wont be federated until you start to follow other communities from other instances, then from my understanding all the communities in that instance will start to show up in your 'all' section. so the more you follow the more you will start to federate. thats what makes this tool so great is that you can search all communities and follow them since if you searched from your instance it wont find everything

Should be able to search all instances. If you know what instance your community is on, then you've already found it so.. why search?

variants ,

thats what this tool does, it lets you search all instances, but the great thing is it lets you choose what instance you are in so that the links open in your instance, instead of having to copy and paste into the search bar like with other search tools ive seen

Can't just search for communities across all instances?

Until some app or instance or web link or whatever the fuck gets this right - critical mass does not occur.
