Why is it that I can't find some communities from different instances [Not defederated] (geddit.social)

As the title says, for example, I can search communities from lemmy.world, but not all show up when searched, a few show up in the communities search. Why?

Sometimes, you have to wait a little while for the search result to appear. I think it appears quickly if other users on this instance have already subscribed to it, since the content has been copied locally. If no one has, then it has to go look it up remotely, and I assume that that takes longer.
