There are a couple of browser extensions for the other place that show you what subreddits a given URL are posted to. If you're looking for discussion about a current link/page/site, it's very handy. Also, if you're submitting links, it's helpful to show where a given link has already been submitted and when.
Searching Lemmy instances can be daunting. An extension like this would be amazing.

Community Points allow members of Reddit communities to own a piece of their community, earn rewards for quality contributions, and unlock special features.
I'm using this to help populate my own instance and I'm having to trigger a search for communities I haven't pulled down before. But when I click 'trigger a search', the search bar is populating wrong. This is what I see:
instance_assistant!instance_assistant@lemmy.ca
If I edit the first instance of the name out, the search works fine, but this seems like a bug.
Over on another website with a similar browser extension, there was a "l+c" button that you could click on a link post to open two tabs, one for the link and one for the comment section. Something like that would be nice, I used it all the time. One other aspect of that feature was that both new tabs opened out of focus. So I could go down a page and open up a lot of tabs and then go and read all of them in sequence.
