I think an important functionality would be able to search with a prefixed exclamation mark to be able to specify an unfederated community, such as !community@lemmyinstance.com

Im still learning the ropes here but I think that’s an important thing to be able to do from wefwef?

    Basically I made a community on lemmy.fmhy.ml and then searched for it on a different instance and it wasn’t coming up, and apparently you have to search !community@instance and subscribe and only then will the community be searchable/accessible from the other instance.

      Maybe Lemmy was just having issues. I couldn’t find the iOS shortcuts community on lemmy.world before and then it suddenly worked. Both times I was just searching for the name.
