I recently spun up my own lemmy instance and was wondering if I had to manually add other lemmy instances to the 'Allowed Instances' admin field, or if they are added automatically when someone searches for a lemmy instance?

I believe I've had to put them in there if I wanted them to be easily searchable. It did seem I could access another instance but that mine didn't have any interest in collecting data until that was put in.
