My understanding is that searching creates a connection to the other instances, and community content should start appearing after you search, but only new posts / comments. There isn't a historical sync across instances from what I understand.

https://lemmyverse.net/communities is a handy site for finding communities. You need to search for their full url the first time.
If you could let me know what you’re searching for I can take a closer look, but essentially on the search page the fastest way to locate a community on another server is to type the url of that community (for example, https://mtgzone.com/c/mtg) or it’s Lemmy address (!mtg@mtgzone.com).
I’ll write up a getting started guide as well on this and searching/connecting/interacting with other Lemmy websites.
If I search for [!linux@beehaw.org](/c/linux@beehaw.org) I find this comment, but not the actual community
I think it might be something up with specifically mtgzone.com? I've made comments in !legacy@mtgzone.com, but I don't see them unless I specifically come through my "home" instance of lemmy.ml? Unless I'm misunderstanding?
A guide would be great . Thank you!
Searching for [!mtg@lemmy.ml](/c/mtg@lemmy.ml) yields no results
You can see at the bottom of mtgzone's modlog ( https://mtgzone.com/modlog ) that the admins removed that community. Idk why, possibly to avoid confusion, maybe they see this and can answer.
