[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.

I'm not sure if I'm doing it correctly, but when I search for other community on other instances, it doesn't show up in the results. I tried the complete URL, the "!", the "!" plus @instance, the name alone. Is there something special to do? Is any user can look for community?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Anyone can lookup, but if it's a community that's being fetched for the first time, it might take a few seconds. Try to refresh and it should be visible after that.

That's my understanding, but I'm trying since yesterday and still no results. From Jerboa I succeeded in finding one community, but since then, it looks like I cannot even though I'm on browser right now. edit: is it possible API are overwhelmed by the number of recent requests?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (2 children)

can you send me the url of the community you're trying to fetch? let me try it on my end.

https://ibb.co/5Kfm9Tp Works Just saw your updated message and I can only think that maybe their lemmy.ml is overloaded with requests right now and is slow to respond.

Thanks, that makes sense. It grew pretty fast in a few days.

Ok I'm seeing it now. It's empty but I assume it takes time to load. Thanks!

Any Idea on why I couldn't do it myself?
