Type in Lemmy.world search "[email protected]" and wait a few seconds (even when the spinner has ended)

This has to do with how the federation retrieves new community. If nobody on your instance has subscribed to a given community from another instance, it won't be fetched by yours. So you gotta force fetch with this command, and then when you subscribe it'll be all good

No problem, I know it's not really intuitive but I guess they'll improve it in the future :)

Also curious. There's some communities I can't seem to find when using lemmy.world
