For future reference, that’s exactly it.
to find a federated community that no one else has searched for, you need to go to the searchpage on your instance, like: https://lemmy.ml/search then search for the whole URL, like: https://lemmynsfw.com/c/porninfifteenseconds
then it should show up.
Although I’ve had it that the search page needed a reload and that it first showed no results and after that switched to the found community.
yeah, it just started showing up, pretty sure.
but [email protected] still doesn’t show up (at this point)
and https://lemmy.ml/c/[email protected] doesn’t (yet) work.
But I guess it’s a time thing then? takes a bit to sync, especially under current loads
You should search the url (https://lemmynsfw.com/c/porninfifteenseconds) in lemmy.ml site to let lemmy.ml fetch the community. I know it should work with accessing directly to the url but not working right now.

Lemmy seems really janky when it comes to this
