Does it take time before new communities on lemmy.ml can be accessed from Beehaw? (beehaw.org)

There is a community that is new on lemmy.ml

lemmy.ml/c/englishlearning

I can access it from that site, but it says community not found when I try to navigate to it via.

beehaw.org/c/[email protected]

Enter the url into search, hit the button and wait. It will say not found at first, but should pop up after a while.

Also everything takes long right now. Servers are strained.

Thanks for the heads up. I have no problem waiting. I guess my real question is, "Am I doing it right?" But it seems that I am. Thanks again for the information.

Thank you so much, there are some star trek community that I could not seem to find.

Search for communities on https://browse.feddit.de/ and paste the link in the search box. You may not see all content anyway, we'll see how things develop

Hey there!

I was just wondering, is this also why when I look at https://lemmy.pt/c/portugal through Beehaw I can't see posts, and it says there is only one subscriber (which is me)? I also noticed that after searching for a specific post I could then see it through Beehaw, but it still said there are no comments. Does it eventually update automatically?

I have to be off now, so thanks in advance for any information anyone can give me!

The thing is, community on the other instance has to be "discovered" by your instance first. That happens when you search for its url from your instance. From that point, it's added to the list of communities under All on your instance, and new posts are synchronized.

But posts on that community from before it was discovered don't seem to be synced, only new ones. That's a known issue and I'm not sure of they're working on it.

The number of subscribers you see is just from your instance.
