I don't know how many times I have tried it now but it seems to be impossible to let [email protected] be indexed by the instance.

Is anyone having the same problem?

Others communities from lemmy.ml didn't cause any problems.

It seems there a lot of communities with this problem, I can't get to [email protected]

I just tried it and it worked for OpenRGB

So it should work for you now

Edit: at least the search result showed up properly 😕

https://lemmy.ml/c/worldbuilding is a 404 page (the community doesn't exist). It's very weird, because https://lemmy.ml/c/[email protected] exists. I'll experiment and come back to you.

Search for local instances on lemmy.ml:

I believe they are suffering from this bug https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3198. Several communities have complained about the same thing. There's an issue when a community has moderators from other instances, it makes lemmy think it isn't local to any instance.

Seems like it, yes

That's what I've been trying to do all this time. Usually searching for !community@instance indexes the community for the instance I'm searching on but in this case it isn't working and seems to be a bug like @[email protected] mentioned in their comment already.

This is something that has to be fixed by lemmy.ml admins I think

I noticed when I search for !community@instance, it looks like nothing pulls up, then I change from 'all' to anything else and it loads enough for me to pull it up and subscribe.

Using the URL to pull them up was only working half the time, but then searching and changing the filter seemed to pick up that slack.
