Since we’re on a remote server here, the search doesn’t find any communities that haven’t been subscribed to by a user here. To get around this, we can use the Lemmy Explorer to see all the communities we can reach.

If you find a community in the Explorer that you wanna subscribe to, just copy the !poundncashdown@lemmy.poundncashdown.com address from the community card (by clicking on it) and then past that into the search on our server.

Searching like this causes the server to go to the Fediverse to find the community, so sometimes you need to try again after a few minutes for it to work.
