So, I was curious and realized that for whatever reason, I can't see my own community !nier@lemm.ee on lemmy.ml or Blahaj Zone. I can see it if I try using lemmy.world, but not the others. My comments at least show up.

Is this a bug with the federation difficulties or is it one of those problems of being defederated?

Some examples of my profile. Posts should have more than just the game development one I made since I've done posts to the community made on this instance.

Basically it’ll get indexed the first time Someone from your instance searches for it with the „!“

In general lemmyverse.net is the best way of finding communities right now

Thank you, that makes sense - I do feel like there should be the option to search unfederated communities without having to know the explicit name & instance, but maybe I’m wrong :-)

I’ve opened a feature request with wefwef dev, thanks for explaining how things work round here !

Yeah discoverability could definitely use some work. Lemmyverse.net is still the best way to find communities I think but Search-Lemmy.com was just launched too. Hopefully third party apps can integrate those in the future which should help.
