Issue with Federation - Viewing a Community (lemmy.studio)

I am trying to subscribe to the community !illegallysmolbirbs@mander.xyz, and it is not showing up when I search for it. I was able to access another community from Mander earlier, so it is a bit of a strange issue.

Weird, It shows up for me: https://lemmy.studio/c/illegallysmolbirbs@mander.xyz

Now it appears to be working for me too, so it probably just took a while to become accessible through federation (it was only created a few days ago).

Weird, I haven’t been able to either. However I was able to subscribe to other Lenny communities. Maybe something is configured in that instance that won’t allow us to subscribe?

actually, I just noticed this community doesn't show up in the community browser - https://browse.feddit.de/

I'd guess it's not federated, meaning the instance where the community was created is not configured to allow subscription access from other instances, but you can access it by reaching that instance directly.
