For example, I was told to search for !catsubs@kbin.social from Lemmy.world in order for Lemmy to fetch it, but searching that using Lemmy search doesn’t work. What am I doing wrong?

It’s actually pretty straight forward once someone takes the time to explain it. I’ll try.
These ! Links are supposed to be universal I think. !futurama@lemmy.world
Then there’s the long URL, https://lemmy.ml/c/futurama@lemmy.world
First you start with your instance then /c/ just like Reddit did with r/ it means you’re looking for a community, then an @ to target another instance.
In this example I started at lemmy.ml told it I was looking for a community, then told it where the that community lives in this case lemmy.world
amazing!
i am now several hours of browsing into this and i can see quite easily what you have explained.
no longer confused (about this). thanks for your help!
I’m glad that helped!
