There’s also this universal community search tool you can try using. If you find a community, just copy its URL and paste it in /search to subscribe to it here. This just goes to show that while there might not be many local communities here on lemmy.one yet, the beauty of the fediverse means that doesn’t matter!
What am I missing? I have subscribed to a few lemmy.ml communities here, but despite seeing https://lemmy.ml/c/overwatch2 as an extant community, trying to subscribe to !overwatch2@lemmy.ml returns errors/not found on lemmy.one’s side. Is this community blocked here?
lemmy.ml has a lot of federation issues unfortunately (uptime issues in general, actually). There’s not much that can be done until their server is fixed, and yes I agree it’s very annoying, but they’re working on it 👍
