Confusing. There are communities I can't subscribe to because I can't access them from my instance, and I have no idea why that is. The experience has been interesting so far, and growing the network is going to be something I'll be keeping an eye on. For now, though, I'll have to wait until someone creates the communities I was a part of on Reddit.
Edit: It seems a community won't show up on your instance's community list unless someone in that instance is subscribed to it.
If you copy the whole URL into the search and wait second it should work for communities your instance did not know about.
btw: you can find communities with this.
Same here. Finding it difficult to subscribe to the major/main community about a topic
