I can find [email protected], but why can I not see [email protected]?

I put the URL in as: https://beehaw.org/c/[email protected]

I put the linux URL in as: https://beehaw.org/c/[email protected]

Linux URL works, Jellyfin gives a 404 error. I'm new here, so is it something I'm missing?

I don't think we'd want to automate subscribing to all an instance's communities as soon as you connect to one. That would be some really aggressive fetching of data that no one explicitly asked for.

I don't see how we could make it much easier than it is: paste a federated community URL you want to subscribe to in the search bar, then click subscribe.

I was more thinking it could limit discovery of new federated communities. I don't know about anyone else, but a big way I discover communities both here and on Reddit is through the front page, cross posts, and sometimes even user profiles.
