I've tried a few times to search for [[email protected]](/c/[email protected]), which seems to be the right way to find remote communities and the two servers should be federated with each other. I'm getting no results. Am I doing something wrong?

I've noticed that sometimes it takes a long time to show up in results, and sometimes not show at all but worked 10-15 minutes later.

I think servers are overloaded atm

I've been following this thread because I was having the same issue:

What works for me is doing a search, getting the no results found, then searching again immediately and it shows on the second attempt

I've found I often have to search the full url for it to properly be found. I think once someone on your instance is subscribed to the community the way you're searching should work, but I'm unsure.

What would be the full url?

I’ve heard you need to link to it from a post with an exclamation mark for it to work sometimes if it’s obscure… I also cannot find https://lemmy.ml/c/usa

Seems to be working, within 24 hours that community becomes available. Can I do the same for https://lemmy.ml/c/aviation
