Currently it seems the sidebar search lists search results from the fediverse, not from my subscribed communities. If I want to go to a specific community, I go to the sidebar. With a lot of subscribed communities you can't favorite all of them, nor do you want to search the entire sidebar list manually

Example: I am subscribed to !space@kbin.social and !space@lemmy.world.

When I search space, neither show up. Instead a bunch of smaller communities are listed, like !space@lemmy.ml, or occult (wtf?).
