How can I access communities on this instance from other instances? (self.main)

I was exploring another instance (lemmy.world), and I wondered if I could find a community on this instance that I moderate (https://sh.itjust.works/c/mash). So I tried searching for the name, that didn't work. I tried searching [email protected], that didn't work either. Finally I tried going directly to https://lemmy.world/c/[email protected], and that led to a Lemmy page saying I had entered a broken link. I also tried going to https://lemmy.world/c/[email protected], and that did work.

So am I doing something wrong?

This error occurs if you're the first person from your instance to access/subscribe to a community in another instance. If you keep hitting f5 or refreshing the page it will eventually connect.

This is the correct structure https://lemmy.world/c/[email protected]

If I have an account at Blahaj but want to visit funny in Lemmy world I go to https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/c/[email protected]
