Adding allowed instances (lemmy.world)

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?

Interact with other communities on other servers. Your Instances will start to populate that way.

That makes sense, but I can't even get my search function to return anything at the moment, even if I copy+paste direct links. Is there another way I can access other servers from my own instance?
