Hi, I noticed that the community search function doesn't work that well. Sometimes I can find communities I'm looking for, but other times I can't; even when I know they exist on other instances. Are these just part of the growing pains?

Try https://browse.feddit.de/ to find them and then you can build your own url like this: https://<your.instance>/c/<community_name>@<other.instance>. Kind of klunky, hope this gets ironed out.

Thank you! This is really helpful. There are still some communities that are 404ing, but it's probably part of the growing pains.
