I can't seem to find my community from other instances.

3 years ago by darknesslieshere to c/lemmy_support

I created a community few hours ago !skypictures@lemmy.ml on lemmy.ml. It currently has two post and two subscribers. I wanted to check if it is discoverable through search. While you can find the community through this home instance, but it doesn't show up through others like beehaw.org or browse.feddit.de.

Do I need to do something manually? Or it would do the indexing(?) on its own? If so, it would be great if someone tells me how much time it generally takes. Thanks.

Some feedback to see if this is similar for others. First I tried searching 'skypictures' and only this post came up. Then I tried '!skypictures@lemmy.ml' and got nothing. Lastly I tried 'sky pictures' and it appeared, but with only one post instead of two.

It seems like a hit or miss. Also, some instances take a while to sync all the posts and comments.

I really hope devs fix this.
