Search for !geometrydash@lemmy.world in Beehaw's search and it should come up. This initial search causes our instance to "federate" with that one.
However, if the instance you're searching for has been explicitly defederated with by Beehaw, you won't be able to see it here at all. We're federated with that instance already though, I thought, so it's strange that it wasn't showing up with other search terms.
Does that federation include all communities from that instance? If so, I should've had no problem, since lemmy.world is the 2nd biggest instance and was most likely already federated. I do seem to be able to see other communities from there I think, but idk. Searching for that only turns up the comments on this post lmao
The sync between federated instances happens on a per-community basis, so they wonβt show up in search until someone has searched for the community once. Depending on instance load, it may take some time for the initial sync of comments to happen after the first subscription.
I've had some intermittent issue switch this behavior and have just chalked it up to the influx of users and constrained Infrastructure.
Are we able to post to other instances? Just tried commenting on a topic on another instance and it didn't go through π€
