I just searched for this community, as I wanted to link to their starting guide from my instance. I searched for !lemmyworld@lemmy.world via my instance's search option, and now while I can visit it, it always appears empty.

I have experienced this when lemmy.ml was having issues. my instance was aware of the community existence but because whatever was happening with lemmy.ml when i tried to access the community (for me was startrek) it couldnt fetch any post data.
my instance then took a few hours to retry (best guess as i have no clue how the protocol/process works) and now all is visible.
I also noticed that that this was because i was the first person on instance to attempt to access the !startrek@lemmy.ml.
(edit for formating)
ye this is something similar to what I'm expecting. It seems lemmy.world grew way too fast and perhaps it doesn't have the compute to handle it. Or maybe it just needs more workers? https://lemmy.ml/post/1216911
