When typing or trying to use the ! it never works. I have to go to the communities from my instance then find it then I can see it and subscribe. When i logged out for testing i couldn’t do anything either. is this normal. or are the servers full right now since the migration from Reddit?

Thanks

        If you’re the first person on your instance to look up that particular sub (community) from a different instance, it will take 10-30 seconds to before it shows up in your search, and you might need to hit search again. Or, after your first search, go to Commities -> All and search again, it should be there immediately

        It’s a known bug, the developers are looking to streamline the process

    We need to try to sub to a whole lot more communities so we can reduce the need for the next wave to have to do this…right?

      Don’t know. I’m new here. I created my sub already. I think even I posted this when I didn’t know how to use lemmy. Now I’m up and about using it like a pro 😃

    I haven’t tried that way because it seems very tedious to do on mobile so this is how I do it:

    I go here https://browse.feddit.de/ copy the link (by clicking the name) and put it in the search bar. Sometimes does it take 30 Seconds. But it is pretty quick. But I may click twice just in case.

    Also you must set the search to all
