Unable to find/access some communities created here on other instances — How long does it take? (self.lemmyworld)

submitted 1 year ago by ndr to c/lemmyworld

9 comments fedilink hide all child comments

Example: I have a community c/[email protected]

Searching for these on other instances like beehaw.org or lemmy.one:

[[email protected]](/c/[email protected])
https://lemmy.world/c/lanadelrey
https://lemmy.world/c/[email protected]
c/[email protected]
lanadelrey

Gives No results. even after waiting several minutes and trying multiple times

I had this problem with [email protected] too, but now it seems to work as expected! So this begs the question: is there a delay before the communities can be discovered? How long do you have to wait in general?

This is how it works from what ive gathered:

First search for it using [email protected] then go to the URL manually: https://currentinstance.domain/c/[email protected]

Then subscribe from there. Needs to be done if no one has already done so for that particular community between those 2 instances. Definitely needs reworking to be more user-friendly.

For me, searching using the remote URL works better.

Example URL: https://beehaw.org/c/technology
