You need to add an exclamation mark in front.
I did that. It finally showed up later in the day, but posts didn't show up on my instance until almost a day later. I'm hoping this gets better with time.
There’s a little bit of a delay as well sometimes between the search results showing “no results” to showing the community - I think the server may take a couple of seconds to do a lookup start federation, and show the community as a valid result. Just a heads up.
I think this is my biggest pet peeve about lemmy, the lack of any feedback to let you know it's still searching. Right now it says there's no results, then when you least expect it, there's a result!
TBH, the UI of Lemmy is rouuuuuuuuuuuuuugh. I'm confident through attention with more ex-Redditors joining + through open source contributions, it'll get better and better, stuff like this will be resolved (even with something as simple as a loading spinner)
Don't know what else to try - I've just subscribed to it. Is your instance up to date? Any other differences?
It took several hours before I could subscribe, and almost a day for any posts to start showing up. I hope this gets better with time.
