easy… Lamingtons :)

Well that is interesting.

• search for whereisthisplace = no results
• search for whereisthisplace@lemmy.world = no results
• search for https://lemmy.world/c/whereisthisplace = no results
• search (again) for whereisthisplace = get a hit

(additonaly)

(in private browser)

• search for whereisthisplace = get a hit

It’s like lemmy.ml “created” a link (when I did search for https://lemmy.world/c/whereisthisplace) and now it shows it

Notes:

• sorry to creators of whereisthisplace to use you community as example
• I did a test with a different community and the results are the same

Well yeah, but lets say that I just want to search for whereisthisplace over all instances and see where this community is (even on multiple ones). The only other approach is to go to each instance and search for it.

But my question still remains - why some communities are shown (eg.: Apple) and some are not (eg.: whereisthisplace)
