Was wondering if I could just get some help with the searching communities on this instance. I'm trying to look at other communities like [email protected]. It doesn't seem to show up in the search bar so when I try to modify the URL to take me to the community, this error shows up. It's a bit strange since lemmy.world is federated.
at least i could find it, you may be confused about the 0 subscriber, that only means 0 persons of YOUR instance have subscriped to it maybe a link like [email protected] works better but i am not sute because the underlaying url looks like the same bit the exclamation mark could trigger something helpful
with this url: https://ani.social/c/[email protected] what looks like the same, so it could be possible that your instance actually did not know them before and only federated them actually a few moments ago.
At least newer servers need time and that sounds like the problem that was way more present a month ago where a lot of new communities and servers popped up
I think the fix was to look for the instance and wait a bit but i am not sure
for finding communities i suggest taking a look at lemmyverse.net instead of the native system
