When you’re trying to find a community, in the search type in the whole URL. So for your example you should be able to make the instance find the community by typing in https://hobbit.world/c/hobbit_art in search all.
Like so:
Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using an URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !hobbit_art@hobbit.world
Actually, clicking those links actually works! Hooray!
I was under the impression that you were supposed to be able to search for "!hobbit_art@hobbit.world" in the community search bar and find things there. Now that I know it works, I've found that simply modifying the community url also works. So going to: https://lemmy.world/c/hobbit_art@hobbit.world actually jumps me right to it.
So, looks like it was already working. Thanks!
