I recently made a community, !celeste@lemmy.ca. The community can be seen from this instance, but isn’t accessible from other ones.

For example, if I go to https://lemmy.one/c/celeste@lemmy.ca , I get an error.

Is there some requirement communities have to reach before they appear on other instances? Is this a bug?

Sorry if the answer is obvious or has been asked before, but I couldn’t find any info on this.

    Ahhh I see. That makes sense.

    I guess a bunch of big severs downloading everything from smaller servers would also create an issue too just like the other way around huh?

      Yeah, pretty much, except for the fact that big servers are more likely to have the hardware to deal with it.
