The communities have to get cached from your local instance. And sometimes it takes some time. I would suggest to search for it directly. And it looks like the url u send works now.
No Stupid Questions
No such thing. Ask away!
!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

Still returning 404 for me and searching directly on kbin doesn't give me results, sadly. Could it be also an issue with caching on my end? Like, do I need to clear cache and cookies? Would be odd, but I don't want to dismiss it as a requirement.
Try another browser. Then you would 100% know if it is your currently browser
Good suggestion! Thank you. Just tried it, still 404 for me. Really odd.
Really odd ;( I am sorry to hear that.
Searching for this helped @imperor
Now I can subscribe, but it's still empty, but it's not 404 anymore. Now I can access it through the link as well. Man, this federation stuff still is a bit midn-boggling despite being such a simple concept. Devil is in the details.
Wait for the instance to start caching content from the comm. It might even take a few days, but eventually, it will start caching. Sometimes it might lag though, like cache for a day or two, than stop for a day or two, than catch up... these are all home servers or VPSes, they're not as powerfull as the servers corps have at their disposal 🤷.
Yeah, that makes some sense. Seeing the community also says created by Ernest and like half an hour ago or so. Seems to me the instance creates a local copy, once it's first accessed (or automatically found) and that has to be cached periodically. Slowly starting to click together, how it all works.
Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using an URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !imperor@lemmy.world, !imperor@lemmy.world

Same for me.. I can see threads but not the community itself. The community was created a long time ago. https://lemmy.world/c/iota or https://kbin.social/m/iota@lemmy.world

Thank you for the tip.. That worked
This is the way I reach the instance through the kbin search field:
@ imperor@ lemmy.world (without the spaces)
I get this as a result:
That's the ticket! That one worked, thank you so much! Quick edit: I do see the community now and I can also access it via the link, though it's empty for me. Alas. Definitely a step in the right direction.
My pleasure 👍🏽
Worked for me too.. Thank you!
