Does the Midwest server not store essentially dead communities from other servers? For example I can find and join technology@beehaw but not [email protected]. I am guessing because the IASIP community doesn’t meet some content or engagement threshold. But, I want to post there so it will meet the threshold! It seems like this could create duplicate communities across servers if small communities can’t be easily revived.
I had to search
!iasip@lemmy.mlin All communities and refresh/start a new search page before iasip loaded. I think simply searching iasip now though will work for you now that it’s “cached” on the midwest instance (someone more knowledgeable about this federation model please correct me if I’m wrong).Does this apply to Kbin magazines as well? I’ve been trying to sub to [email protected] without much luck; I’ve searched it a few times, and while there’s a few other Kbin magazines that come up on a search in the communities list, that one remains elusive.
