I created my own comm on lemmy-ml yesterday and have made a couple posts since then. I wanted to subscribe to it from lemmy-one and join from here for everyday usage and only moderate from lemmy-ml

I'm trying to lower my lemmy-ml usage to help with server stability there.

is there a time delay in getting new comms added to the search here? or maybe some other cause?

I've tried finding it through search and I've also tried directly putting in the URL I think it would be based on what the URL looks like for other comms. neither worked for me

clearly, I'm missing something here

To federate a new community, you need to search for the exact community using the search bar on lemmy.one, in the form [email protected], then wait for a few minutes. The next time you look for it, it should be available.

Using the search bar to initiate federation isn't totally obvious, I think this is one of the things that is planned to be improved in the future.

@knighthawk0811 did you try putting the URL in the search box?

you need to search as:

[[email protected]](/c/[email protected])

if that doesn't work, try to access by url:

lemmy.one/c/[email protected]
