I’m trying to view [email protected] from lemmy.one but it just won’t show up and lemmy.one/c/[email protected] says 404 community not found when I’m able to find it on my Midwest.social account any help?
@Percy It’s not ideal, but you can also manually form the URL to load the instance if it’s not yet turning up in a search.
Basically the format is like this
mylemmy.domain/c/remotecommunityname .name
So to view [email protected] from my home lemmy instance of blahaj.zone, I would type the following
https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/c/[email protected]
And to view it from lemmy.one, you would type the following (though I can’t test this one)
https://lemmy.one/c/[email protected]
This doesn’t work in my experience (although I wish it did). The only reliable way I’ve seen to trigger a fetch is to enter the community URL (e.g.
https://midwest.social/c/projectzomboid
) or the ID (e.g.!projectzomboid@midwest.social
) in your Lemmy instance’s /search page.
Normally you’d paste the URL [email protected] in the search field on lemmy.one, then you should be able to find projectzomboid lemmy.one -> Communities
I just tried it on reddthat.com. It worked for [email protected] and [email protected], but not for [email protected]
Some people have said the same thing of not being able to find it in some communities but not others. Following the same steps
The specific community is causing issues for me too. I can view it in my instance (feddit.de) but I cannot see comments and also cannot post anything.
