The search function’s really weird, was having trouble finding a community on a different instance as well. I think it works best if you remove the ! and everything after @.
I went onto sh.itjustworks, went to the Communities tab, then all, then searched “windows_help” and I found it. Hope. that works!
I think I might have found an answer. Some communities might not be federated yet on that instance. So you might have to search the whole “!community@instance.stuff” and get no results. Then a few minutes later search for just “community” and it should be there.
I have previously tried just “windows_help” as well and it wasn’t there yet. Definitely makes this confusing.
xkcd 149
also shamelessly plugging !windows_help@iusearchlinux.fyi.
edit typo
For those wondering which xkcd:
Lemmy is great
And so are you
Sorry, but how can I access this from a different instance? I tried searching the community but it returned no result.
