Where do you copy and paste it to though? If i copy, for example, the first one listed, Announcements, then go back to lemmy.world and paste it into the community search, it comes up as !announcements@lemmy.ml, and the searrch comes up blank. If I manually type just "announcements" and search, I get results, but that's what I'm already doing.

You copy any community address such that it looks like this, a community at our instance for example:

!cybersecurity@lemmy.pro

And return to being back on your own instance (Lemmy.world it seems) and are logged in.

In your main menu there is a small search icon, tap that and enter the address like above and hit search. It can take some time to appear these days, but eventually the community link will show up, maybe at the bottom under posts that included it.

This hit sidebar, and then can find join and comment
