Hello folks! I created the MetalVinyl a few days ago and was just having a look on some other instances (I am on lemmy world and the sub was also created there - I believe?). Weirdly if I head over to lemm.ee or beehaw.org and try to find it, it’s not showing up but I can see other subs from lemmy.world? Did I do anything wrong when creating it? Or is it fully normal that it seems to be only available for lemmy.world? Thanks in advance!

    Someone from the instance you are logged into must sub first. Until a singular user from a instance subs, you won’t see it auto populate. If you want to be the one to initiate it, login on the instance you want to see the sub using your web browser and use the search function. You may have to search by !community@instance. Sometimes there is a delay in the search, so give it a few seconds.

      Ok now it makes more sense, you mentioned I need to be logged in. I only have a lemmy.world account active so thats why I can’t pull the result maybe. Even a search with the full name didn’t give me any results - !metalvinyl@lemmy.world
