Can't see some communities from other instances (infosec.pub)

Hi, I'm new to lemmy, maybe I'm doing something wrong.

I made an account via infosec.pub. When I display All communities there, I see e.g. communities from lemmy.ml, but not for example !sverige@lemmy.helvetet.eu

How do I subscribe to those communities via infosec.pub?

If the desired community on a remote instance is not already available on your home server, then you have to paste the URL (e.g. https://lemmy.helvetet.eu/c/sverige) to the search field. Your server will then fetch the community and it should appear after a couple of seconds!

That worked, and I got a better understanding on how these servers are working together. Thanks a lot!
