Communities on other instances not loading?

Apologies if I'm just doing something wrong, but I seem to be having patchy results loading up communities from other instances.

E.g. this works fine: https://aussie.zone/c/lemmyworld@lemmy.world

On the other hand, this gives 404 community_not_found: https://aussie.zone/c/music@lemmy.world

(And it definitely exists, see here: https://lemmy.world/c/music )

Any ideas?

https://aussie.zone/c/music@lemmy.world loaded for me just now. Usually the first person to search for a remote community will find nothing. Once our instance has managed to connect to the home instance, it will load up.

Yep, working for me now 😆 Any chance including the link in the body of my post triggered it?

Yeah at a guess the first community was already linked here. The second was not, until you searched for it.

Searching doesn't seem to do much for me.

E.g. this search doesn't show up movies@lemmy.ml: https://aussie.zone/search/q/movies/type/Communities/sort/TopAll/listing_type/All/community_id/0/creator_id/0/page/1

And the URL: https://aussie.zone/c/movies@lemmy.ml just gives a 404 no matter how many times I refresh it (and it's been at least 10 minutes since I first searched and tried that URL).

(Whereas the URL for that instance works fine https://lemmy.ml/c/movies)

NOTE: I've deliberately marked the URLs as code so they won't be linked, which I think is triggering the update, but I figured I would give it a bit longer to see if searching alone does it.

I searched for https://lemmy.ml/c/movies. First time, nothing. Second time it showed up. I think lemmy.ml is just overloaded.

Hmm, maybe I'm just misunderstanding exactly what you mean by 'searching'. What was the URL of the search page when you did the search? E.g. https://aussie.zone/search/q/... (or is it even of that format?).

Hmm something odd is going on. Searching for movies shows the community, but for the full https://lemmy.ml/c/movies URL does not.

Yeah, and searching communities for movies@lemmy.ml also gives nothing at all.
