Try https://browse.feddit.de/ to find them and then you can build your own url like this: https://<your.instance>/c/<community_name>@<other.instance>. Kind of klunky, hope this gets ironed out.
Thank you! This is really helpful. There are still some communities that are 404ing, but it's probably part of the growing pains.
It only works for me (when pasting the full url of the community in the search box) if I select "All" instead of "Communities"
Yeah that's the problem. I'm trying to search because I don't know the URL in the first place :/ I guess I'll have to use another instance's search.
After searching the first time, wait a few minutes and search again, it will probably show up. I had the same issue yesterday and apparently you need to do this the first time a remote community is accessed from a local instance.
I find you have to search twice. Paste ! community@domain.url, click search, wait, click inside the text input where you pasted then click search again. This will get any community.
Still two I can't seem to find using our search. Maybe you can help/try? -https://lemmy.ca/c/philippines@lemmy.world -https://lemmy.ca/c/audiobooks@lemmy.ml
I put in !audiobooks@lemmy.ml and !philippines@lemmy.world and I can get it. The philippines I had to wait the clicct in the input then press search a few times for it to appear.
