I’ve been searching for them in

https://aussie.zone/communities/listing_type/All/page/1

There are some very active communities there so I’ve been switching between kbin.social and aussie.zone. If possible I’d prefer to stick to just one site.

I can’t seem to find them from the aussie.zone search. Some do work others do not

-redditmigration - can be seen from search

-politics - Not findable

I’ve even tried using !politics@kbin.social but it doesn’t show up in the search. I’m likely using the wrong search parameter format.

    Take the URL of the actual community and paste it into search. It seems to let you subscribe to a lot of stuff that gets confused with just !politics@kbin.social

    I’ve been adding all kinds of things to my lemmy.

    On my own instance, I tried searching for !politics@kbin.social and all I saw this post, but when I searched for https://kbin.social/m/politics it immediately showed up correctly.

    Another thing when posting or responding on kbin instances, I’ve found you need to select your language or the post’ll just hang up.

      Thanks for that. The politics community didn’t really show up the same as that redditmigration one in search but it did show a single post which I was able to subscribe to.

      Just gotta wait for it to sync to aussie.zone now I suppose before I can see it here.

      Thanks for the tip on posting. I’ll probably be lurking mostly but good to know.
