    AFAIK, seeing what you have shown that you have tried, the cause might be that your instance lemmy.one does not know that something as a !tf2@lemmy.ml exists. That is because nobody from your instance have ever subscribed to that community, so your instance does not download content from this community to your instance. You would have to be the first one to subscribe to that community in order to start federating that community content to your instance.

    If pasting https://lemmy.ml/c/tf2 in Jerboa community search produces any results, you would have to go through the web interface first. Subscribe there, and only then you will be able to see its content in Jerboa (on your instance).

    This is a mechanism for preventing downloading unnecessary quantities of content from communities nobody on a new instance is interested in and wasting bandwidth and storage space. If someone wants to start federating with a new community, they need to explicitly request to start federating it as describe above.

      Going through the web interface leads to this which is one of the reasons I came here. Is there any sort of way that you know of to help with it?

        I have no idea how can this exact picture happen. Unless you block the IP for lemmy.ml entirely, I do not understand what is happening here. It could be that deleting your account somehow poisoned your browser cache and now everything on lemmy.ml fails to load because of that. You can try to clear it. Otherwise, I am clueless. Sorry :) You can try to create an issue to ask for instruction from more knowledgeable people, if you wish.
