I have another account on lemmy.ml and can’t see any of the aussie.zone communities when I search for them, even if I provide a proper URL as outlined here.

Maybe this is a problem on their side or just a bug, but I thought I’d mention it here in case there’s an instance config issue here that can be fixed.

IMHO it would be nice if the communities here showed up on the biggest Lemmy instance to help aussies find their way here.

Edit: Looks like this took care of itself, likely just server congestion on the lemmy.ml side as others suggested. Thanks all!

    lemmy.ml being overloaded is part of it. The other part is that currently when you first add a community to from a remote instance, not all posts are synced. As a rule, only posts going forward will be seen.

    I’m hoping that at some point the devs add a feature to allow user activity to dynamically pull old posts from the home instance… but I don’t think it is a priority, if its on the list at all.
