!programming@programming.dev clearly exists (see https://programming.dev/c/programming), but I can’t seem to find it in Lemmy.world’s search bar.
I see that “someone needs to search” for a community for it to appear in the search bar. Furthermore, if I go to “lemmy.world/c/programming@programming.dev”, I can see and subscribe to that instance just fine.
I’m just worried about discoverability. How was I supposed to even discover programming@programming.dev if this instance didn’t know about it?
When you subscribed to that community, that caused the lemmy.world server to know about it, and now it is available in the communities search.
