I’ve tried connecting to Lemmy.ca from other instances, but it doesn’t seem to work.

Is this just a growing pains thing?

Edit: For example I can’t subscribe to communities on lemmy.ca from kbin.social.

I also can’t connect to any communities on Lemmy.world.

    I’m trying to connect to Lemmy.ca from say kbin.social. I’ve tried every syntax doesn’t seem to work. Conversely I can’t find any of the kbin.social communities here either.

    Same when looking for anything from Lemmy.world.

    I’m also a complete noob, so that probably didn’t help!

      there’s known issues with kbin.social and here, maybe it’s both ways, but from here to kbin for sure.

      I tested a few things at lemmy.world, and it appeared to work. generally, if you search for any user/community/post/comment URL it should work. for example I copied the post URL for this post and it found it right away.

        Okay perfect! Not expecting 100%. But so far lemmy.ca experience has been pretty good!

        I can now find Lemmy.world!
