The community does not show up in search, and when I enter the full link (!community@ instance.com) , it seems to treat it as a string to search for rather than an address.

That's been my experience too, browser is still the only reliable way to initiate discovery of an unfederated remote community as far as I know.

EDIT: actually it might be working on Voyager

Aren't communities federated or not on a instance by instance basis, though? Did I get that wrong?

No that is correct. I was merely correcting that finding an unfederated remote community works not only in browser but also on the Voyager app.
