From the documentation:

You will need to be a Visual Studio Enterprise subscriber to unlock this feature in either Visual Studio Enterprise on Windows or Visual Studio for Mac on a Mac.

So sadly you can't use the great features of Xamarin Profiler using Visual Studio Community, you need Enterprise. You can also get a trial for 30/90 days if I remember, so consider it.

If you want to profile iOS version of your app, I think you should be able to use Instruments tool from XCode, please follow this instructions: Profiling Xamarin.iOS Applications with Instruments. To open it, go for Tools → Instruments in Visual Studio for Mac.

If you want to profile Android app, check out Profiling Android Apps, it describes how to do it from Android Studio.
