So when I go to https://lemmyverse.net/communities and search for let’s say Wordpress communities, I can see at least 3 there. When I search on my instance, so I can join and subscribe, I can’t see any. Why is that? The instances they are on are not defederated from my instace.

    This is what works for me:

    1. Search https://lemmyverse.net/communities for "wordpress
    2. See a link that looks something like !wordpress@lemmy.world
    3. Click on that link so you copy it
    4. Go to your instant, click the search button and paste in what you copied (!wordpress@lemmy.world)
    5. The search should show the instance. Click on it
    6. When the community pops up, it should have a subscribe button.
    7. Click that button and Bob’s your uncle.

    There’s probably a quicker way to doing this, as it seems like it takes about 3-4 times the number of clicks you should need, but it might just be the nature of federated blah blahs.
