I tried for [!linux@lemmy.ml](/c/linux@lemmy.ml) but it didn't work. What should I do?
As @KoreanPerson said, you can try removing the exclamation. Otherwise, from what I've gathered on other servers, sometimes it's because servers haven't been federated between each other yet so you do the search and then wait a bit for the server to pick up and federate the other server. It should then come up in a search.
Personally I've found it a hit and miss on how much time you have to wait. Sometimes it's appeared clicking search a second time and others it's been days and still not appeared.
Also bear in mind that some servers are blocked by others so they'll never appear in the search and you can't access it regardless of the method used to 'discover' a community.
