I'm noticing a much smaller list of communities here (self.support)

Hello, When I go to communities and list all, I can only see two pages of communities. If I search for a community I know about there's a good chance it does not show until I go to https://lemmy.nz/c/group@instance

Once I do that I can subscribe to the community and it's behaving normally.

Is this an effect of it being federated?

Thanks

I don’t think smaller communities are less prioritised, but on larger communities it’s much more likely some I else has searched it up first so it’s already federated with the server.

Fair enough, It's just a half baked supposition I came to after some larger non-federatred communities showed up almost instantly and a few others took more of time.
