If no one ever subscribed to that community it can take a few seconds for the server to fetch it. Just wait a bit or try again.

I've tried a bunch of times, searching for "!songaweek@lemmy.world" in communities, with 'all' selected. Pretty consistently nothing for me. Does it come up for you?
Works without problems here. Try searching the actual URL https://lemmy.world/c/songaweek
You mean it works for you with “!songaweek@lemmy.world”? For me the url works but the ! address does not. If the ! address searching is broken, isn't that a problem?
You might need to click search a couple times. It usually only takes a few seconds but if the other server is down or they can’t otherwise can’t communicate temporarily or otherwise you might not be able to find it.
Repeated searching isn't helping, and their webserver is working at https://lemmy.world/c/songaweek. There are other lemmy.world communities showing up in my feed. Hmmm
it could be that the two instances cant talk to each other, or are perhaps rate limited. Are you able to connect from a different source instance?
Tried here and that didn't get any results either. Nor do I get any results for !memes@lemmy.world "https://lemmy.ml/search?q=!memes%40lemmy.world&type=Communities" which is weird since I see those posts on my lemmy.ml feed.
weird. doesnt work for me either. Lemmy.world had some recent downtime maybe some functionality is still broken atm.
I was running into that too, then I tried pasting the https link to the community (for you, https://lemmy.world/c/songaweek) into the search bar and that worked. Just heads up you usually need to wait up to 30 seconds after pressing the “Search” button for the result to appear
Ok that works - came up in about a second for me. Thx!
