How does the search function work and why does it sometimes not work from different instances when searching All? In other words -

  • I search for a community that exists on Lemmy instance A (e.g. midwest.social) from Lemmy instance B (e.g. lemmy.ml) and it finds it.
  • I search for that same community from Lemmy instance C (e.g. lemmy.one), and it doesn't find it.
  • Lemmy instance A, B, and C are all connected / federated.
     

Ultimately, my goal is to subscribe to communities on other instances from the instance I'm logged into, but can't find by searching All from there for whatever reason. How do I do that?
