Trying to connect to community on another server, but 'not found' (lemmy.sdf.org)

I'm new to lemmy.

When I search for [email protected] I get a No results. error. It does exist. Other discuss.tchncs.de communities come up when I search just that string.

Is it something I'm doing wrong?

EDIT: Working now. It seems it just needs time to reach out and do things. Not an intuitive experience at all -- feels broken -- but it eventually does function.

Ah I think I got it working now, the link https://lemmy.sdf.org/c/[email protected] should work now. What I did:

  • Login to your home instance (lemmy.sdf.org in your case)
  • Click on Search and search for the community you want to go to with the full link. So that would be https://discuss.tchncs.de/c/loseit in your case.
  • Wait until it finds something. Even when it says "No Results", just wait a bit longer.
  • As soon as it finds the other community, you should then be able to connect to it from your home instance.
