[PSA] Communities will only show in 'All' of you instance if someone in that instance has searched and subscribed to it. (lemmy.fmhy.ml)

Try to visit other instances and search their interesting communities on your own instance so there is a better federation among all instances.

Subscribing to as many communities as you can would help grow your instance much better.

This federation concept does not work as expected for me. If I understand correctly, I can access a community from mastodon, kbin and others. But In practice I get a lot of 404 errors.

For example, I want to access https://kbin.social/m/tech from lemmy. So I could access it by going to https://lemmy.fmhy.ml/c/[email protected], right? But I just get a "404: couldnt_find_community" error message.

Also the search functionality seems really broken when you want to search a community from another instance, sometimes it's in the results and sometimes it's not. Is there a cache of some kind or a really long delay when a community is new?

kbin is having some issues with the influx of new users. will all smooth out over the coming days / weeks as servers scale and stabilize
