How do I subscribe to a community outside my instance? (beehaw.org)

Hi. I've subscribed to several communities outside my instance already, but I'm having a problem where I can't seem to repeat the process for certain communities.

For example, I wanted to go to /c/test on lemmy.ml. But going to lemmy.ml/c/test takes me outside of Beehaw, my home instance, so I can't post or subscribe from there. So I checked how I could visit this community, and its URL is https://beehaw.org/c/lemmy_support@lemmy.ml. I then tried going to https://beehaw.org/c/test@lemmy.ml, but that gives me an error page.

What do? I can't find /c/test on the communities page, either.

Apologies if I'm being dumb.

That delay is from your instance and the instance you searched for exchanging information and syncing its database. You can actually see this in action if you have the "all" tab on your instances homepage open while you do the search.
