Can't find communities from other lemmy instances through the search (mtgzone.com)

Am I doing something wrong? It seems to me that we ought to be able to find communities from other instances by searching for them, but I don't really see much when I search. Sometimes some communities show up, but it seems to be only communities I've visited before or something?

Searching for [[email protected]](/c/[email protected]) yields no results

That one I do get results for

(alrhough sometimes it will say no results and then if you click next to go the next page it will look again and find it)

I see. There's probably some caching for the search function that doesn't contain absolutely everything at any given time (since that is rather intensive).

You can see at the bottom of mtgzone's modlog ( https://mtgzone.com/modlog ) that the admins removed that community. Idk why, possibly to avoid confusion, maybe they see this and can answer.
