Let me give you an example:

  • there is a community on lemmy.world (whereisthisplace) - https://lemmy.world/c/whereisthisplace

  • I go on lemmy.ml and search for whereisthisplace

  • my search parameters are: {Communities} {All} {Top All Time}, {Community: All} {Creator: All}

  • but when I search for (eg.) Apple I get "Apple@lemmy.world"

is it because no one is subscribed form this istance?

Well that is interesting.

  • search for whereisthisplace = no results
  • search for whereisthisplace@lemmy.world = no results
  • search for https://lemmy.world/c/whereisthisplace = no results
  • search (again) for whereisthisplace = get a hit

(additonaly)

(in private browser)

  • search for whereisthisplace = get a hit

It's like lemmy.ml "created" a link (when I did search for https://lemmy.world/c/whereisthisplace) and now it shows it

Notes:

  • sorry to creators of whereisthisplace to use you community as example
  • I did a test with a different community and the results are the same
