A very interesting read, and indeed that's exactly what I observed! Once I pressed on the [email protected] hyperlink that @[email protected] created, I might have "unlocked" (indexed?) it for lemm.ee because from that point on it found the community every time I searched for it in the search bar, even without being subscribed to it yet. Or maybe someone else had already searched for it after reading my post and was patient enough to let the indexing initiate. Anyways, it works, thanks for your explanation, hope this helps someone else too!
You're right, it IS a bit slow! I tried it again with another community I'm interested in and after it said "no results" I kind of assumed it was done searching, but after 5 or so seconds the community eventually popped up. This happened while trying on lemm.ee through a browser, not through the app I was using.
I've read the "!" tip many times, but it just doesn't work when using the Android app "Liftoff" or the webapp "Voyager" (yet). But in those apps one can set a search filter for communities when searching for something.
What did work was pressing on the hyperlink you generated when you typed the community with an "!" in front of it, so I guess that's another way to reach a community. Anyways, thanks for all your help!
Holy sh** this to me looks practically identical to Windows 10 (at least to a noob like me), had to double check it was in fact Linux🤣 Good job!
