Let me give you an example:
-
there is a community on lemmy.world (whereisthisplace) - https://lemmy.world/c/whereisthisplace
-
I go on lemmy.ml and search for
whereisthisplace -
my search parameters are: {Communities} {All} {Top All Time}, {Community: All} {Creator: All}
-
but when I search for (eg.)
AppleI get “Apple@lemmy.world”
is it because no one is subscribed form this istance?

Well yeah, but lets say that I just want to search for whereisthisplace over all instances and see where this community is (even on multiple ones).
The only other approach is to go to each instance and search for it.
But my question still remains - why some communities are shown (eg.: Apple) and some are not (eg.: whereisthisplace)
