Thanks, this worked. I was searching "community@instance.tld" but they showed right up when I used full URL copied from the search tool.

Found a few very small communities with just a few posts from the universal search tool, when I search for these (they are on other instances) I can't find them. They are not on a blocked instance (both are on lemmy.ml), am I doing something wrong or is there some limit in size of community that are reachable through federation? Thanks, am very new to how the federation works in both Lemmy and Mastodon.
