Why is it that I can find the dogs community lemmy.world with over 2k subscribers while the same community does not appear when I search from vlemmy?

This is a support question and would fit better at !lemmy_support@lemmy.ml

Hey, you should be able to search for it, this may help you: https://lemdit.com/post/18035

I am able to find it from vlemmy:

Note that it won’t show up in the search results if you are not logged in.

Basically the community shows up when I search from worlds as over 1k subs but just 9 from vlemmy. I guess that is the number of local subs from each instance?

Yep, it’s how many are subscribed from your instance.

Yes, it just means that there are 9 people from vlemmy that have subbed to that community. This bit is a bit confusing, for example if nobody had subbed to it yet from vlemmy then it would show 0 subs.

You are right. Maybe it is an app issue? Let me see if I can figure out how to post a screenshot

It mustn’t be federated. Or not searching right.

Try propagation if the url. Instead of searching.
