You can add communities from other instances via search but sometimes they don’t show up (especially from small instances). I think that they’re not federated with your original instance yet. So the only option is to add them by web browser.

I see. That’s fine. Thanks

Try posting the link, like this:

[email protected]

I had this same problem earlier where I couldn't get the community to pop up either in search or when I put the direct address with the exclamation. Typing a reply with the community address and then clicking on the link worked and allowed me to subscribe from within the community. Not sure why subscribing or finding the community isn't working otherwise.

I will try that. Thanks
