I noticed that not all magazines of federated (Lemmy) instances show up in search. So is there a way to open them anyway in Mbin and trigger fetching of content?
I already tried to open the /m/magazine@federated.instance URL directly but it only returns a 404.

  • I'll need to double check for Mbin, but for Lemmy:

    • a community doesn't start federating to an instance until someone from that other instance tries to access it (in the same way you described)
    • once someone does that, it starts federating and takes a few seconds to a few minutes to show up

    Assuming mbin is the same, you could check back in a few minutes?
