Reposting from Lemmy Support@lemmy.ml since i didn’t get any replies
Is this a limitation of my instance (feddit.de)?
I tried through URL (feddit.de/c/community@instance) and through feddits search function (!community@instance) What I described happens with the former; with the latter the community is not found
I’m not sure if it’s related but I know a lot of Lemmy instances are getting overloaded because of the Reddit blackout. I know that the main instance was having federation problems because the servers kept crashing from the influx of users.
Same, including the “been trying for days” part.
There might be issues with the remote instance. Try again in a couple hours, maybe?
it’s been happening for 3 days now unfortunately, might move to another instance if it keeps happening
