Certain communities seem to be inaccessible from Lemmy.world and vice versa. For instance, if I try to access /c/boston in Lemmy.ml via lemmy.world/c/boston@lemmy.ml, I get a “404: couldnt_find_community” error. Similarly, trying to access /c/boston in Lemmy.world from either Kbin.social (via kbin.social/m/boston@lemmy.world) or Lemmy.ml (via lemmy.ml/c/boston@lemmy.world) both give 404 errors.
Hmm works for me, I can find it and open it. Maybe lemmy.ml was overloaded?
Yeah possibly! I think the second issue I mentioned is still occurring, though. Namely, lemmy.ml/c/boston@lemmy.world returns a 404 error (and also for Kbin.social).
Then I think lemmy.ml hasn’t discovered it yet, maybe there’s delay on their server?
Perhaps! This should be triggered by searching “!boston@lemmy.world” from lemmy.ml, correct?
Yes, but as the server is overloaded, it might take some time.
