Why, when I search for a community my instance is not yet aware of, does it sometimes not bring back any posts in that community? This community is in example of that.

Most new additions will redline the CPU but then come back with a populated page for the community. Sometimes that doesn’t happen and no amount of purging and retrying will cause it to.

I’m currently unable to subscribe to anything on Beehaw. I just get subscription pending and there is no content sent my way. Statistically they’re also more likely to encounter no. 1 above. Can I fix this?

    If you search for a community first time, 20 posts are fetched initially. Only if a least one user on your instance subscribes to the remote community, will the community send updates to your instance.

    The point is I’m not getting 20 posts. I get nothing. I can subscribe and then get posts from that point forward as I’d expect.
