[SOLVED] Communities not visible in search

Let me give you an example:

there is a community on lemmy.world (whereisthisplace) - https://lemmy.world/c/whereisthisplace
I go on lemmy.ml and search for whereisthisplace
my search parameters are: {Communities} {All} {Top All Time}, {Community: All} {Creator: All}
but when I search for (eg.) Apple I get "Apple@lemmy.world"

is it because no one is subscribed form this istance?

you would need to search this "!whereisthisplace@lemmy.world" in the search box. this will bring that community into lemmy.ml.
