how do I search for a channel from another instance not already linked?

Cryst@lemmy.ca to Asklemmy@lemmy.ml – 1 points –

I'm trying to add this but can't figure our th3 system to get it to show up when I search.

"cute dogs, cats, and other animals !aww@lemmy.ml"

Copy the address !aww@lemmy.ml into the search bar on your home instance. When you search that triggers your instance to federate that community and now will know about it. Then when you have the search result back you can click the community and subscribe to it

Ok thanks. I got that to work. I'm trying to find

Lemmy.ml/c/switch now but I can't seem to get it to show up?
