    The behavior regarding search is to be expected: the community is only fetched after being searched like you did.

    To the second point: I have read conflicting information on this. Some people wrote that only posts younger than the time the community was fetched will show up. Others have claimed that it’s the last 20 or so posts but that would be contrary to your experience. Maybe the servers just haven’t caught up yet.

      It’s notably different from how it has worked with Lemmy instances. With Lemmy I can search by community name e.g. !nfl@kbin.social rather than the URL, and once I’ve done that it automatically pulls at least some recent content. It did this when I joined !knitting@lemmy.world for instance.

        Try @nfl

        It was hard to understand that, but that’s the nomenclature to use to find a lemmy community in kbin. Maybe that’s how it works in Lemmy to KBin as well.

        Oh right, yeah either notation should work I believe, I’d chalk it (both) up to performance issues.
