I’m fairly new to fediverse/instances, but my understanding that these Instances are federated with each other, so they can show the same posts/communities (depending on their respective filters).
So, why does searching for communities show different results, and even show different subscriber counts for one that do appear across all results?
Is this a case of the servers just needing to sync with each other?
Yep, use lemmyverse.net to search.
We’re integrating lemmyverse.net searches into the browser extension were working on (see more on https://lemmy.ca/c/instance_assistant) so that it pops up right on the Lemmy UI, but for now I just open it in a new tab
