Hello,

I have subscribed to a few communities already (some on other instances, like lemmy.ml ou beehaw), but some communities cannot be accessed from here, even tough other communities from the same instance are available.

For example, I cannot access [email protected] from here, even though I can access other communities from lemmy.ml here, and the community is accessible from other instances (like feddit.de: https://feddit.de/c/[email protected]). I only get a 404 error: https://sh.itjust.works/c/[email protected]

Is there any reason why? Maybe related to load issues @lemmy.ml?

Ok, figured it out.

For those in similar cases, you MUST first search the community in the search bar here. Searching [email protected] only returned this thread initially, but after a few seconds the community appears in the search results.

From there, the community will sync here and will be visible here, with new posts appearing over time (afaik it doesn't sync existing posts, only new ones).

Hope this clears up the process for the next persons in my position :)

I tried this with [email protected] and it never returns, I’m guessing Lemmy.world isn’t federated yet?

More federated communities were showing up for me last night vs today. I’m thinking it’s a lot of new users bogging both ends down. There’s a lot of growing pains, but I think things should be sorted out eventually. No one was really ready for all of Reddit to onboard
