I wanted to join the history memes community which is in lemmy.ml but I’m on lemmy.fmhy.ml. For the other communities I would just search it up and join but it doesn’t show up in search. How would I join it then?

lemmy.ml is either down or extremely unstable right now. It's having trouble keeping up with the demand, and it isn't sending posts to federated servers. I say wait until tomorrow.

Ok I’ll just wait then

Sometimes search is a little slow. I’ve had to wait 5-10 seconds for the community search results to finally show up. Perhaps that is what you are experiencing?

Nope it just says theres no results

What are you using for the search string?

I’ve found that [email protected] works best for cross instance community searches. The full https url gives me problems.

It’s still says no results but ubergeek77 said it might be that lemmy.ml is overloaded so I’m waiting till tomorrow

I didn’t realize you were trying to sub to something from Lemmy.ml. Their instance has been up and down all day, unfortunately.

I guess it has something to do with how active the community is. I had the same issue, and was trying to troubleshoot with Ruud why this happens. Today in the morning, my community started being more active and started to appear on other instances.

Make some posts in the community (and comments), invite users and after 24h, it should be visible to other instances as well. Could be a bug (because Lemmy is riddled with bugs).

FYI: I believe the lemmy.world community (this one) is for discussions specifically about the lemmy.world instance. You're from lemmy.fmhy.ml, which is a different instance.
