Hey everyone :) First ever post in the metav-…I mean fediverse!! (damn you, Zucc’s PR department)
Jokes aside, this is so exciting and I can’t wait to see what lemmy will look like in a year or two. I like to believe that I’ll be still here and the explicit long-term commitment of this instance is very motivating!
Now to the problem in the title: I hope I don’t make a fool out of myself but I haven’t read anyone mentioning this while looking through the latest posts in this community. While searching for communities to subscribe to, I noticed that some don’t appear in the search results when searching from the lemm.ee instance. Specifically I was trying to subscribe to the vitahacks@lemmy.ml community or the skychildrenoflight@lemmy.world community.
Am I alone? Am I doing something wrong? Did I miss something? Every help is appreciated.
A very interesting read, and indeed that’s exactly what I observed! Once I pressed on the !vitahacks@lemmy.ml hyperlink that @odium@programming.dev 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!
