Luckily this is something that only has to be done once per community. You should be able to see it in search without having to go through this process. If you want to add the beehaw communities you should be able to without issue.

Another great example is if you search for Firefox. On beehaw, two communities instantly come up, here it says no results found.
I don’t think so. I just made a quick recording of adding another community from feddit.uk: https://cln.sh/6Kx3ssBk

thanks so much for the video. I definitely wasn’t switching to ALL and when I did, I was able to find some of my communities.
