Why is it that I can find the dogs community lemmy.world with over 2k subscribers while the same community does not appear when I search from vlemmy?
This is a support question and would fit better at !lemmy_support@lemmy.ml
Awesome photo!
Hey, you should be able to search for it, this may help you: https://lemdit.com/post/18035
I am able to find it from vlemmy:
Note that it won’t show up in the search results if you are not logged in.
Basically the community shows up when I search from worlds as over 1k subs but just 9 from vlemmy. I guess that is the number of local subs from each instance?
Yep, it’s how many are subscribed from your instance.
Yes, it just means that there are 9 people from vlemmy that have subbed to that community. This bit is a bit confusing, for example if nobody had subbed to it yet from vlemmy then it would show 0 subs.
You are right. Maybe it is an app issue? Let me see if I can figure out how to post a screenshot
