i've noticed this too, mostly with lemmy.ml communities. i was assuming it was because of their server being overloaded, and it looks like they have migrated to a new server now, but it still doesn't appear to be working. i will investigate some more.
are the communities you're having issues with mostly on the lemmy.ml instance? or others?
edit: just tried subscribing to a community from .ml from a different instance, and got the same issue. so i'm going to assume for now that it's an issue with their server.
They're mostly on the lemmy.ml instance, yes. One or two are beehaw.
I have to be honest, if this issue isn't resolved, I will be less likely to want to continue to use lemmy.
I just tested this with both beehaw and lemmy.ml communities, and both worked. the lemmy.ml just took a few seconds.
not sure why you wouldn't be able to click on the subscribe pending button. are you using an app or just using a browser?
I'm using a browser, Vivaldi, which is chromium based. I tried in Chrome, too, and same problem. I'd like to PM an admin on lemmy.ml, but I can't seem to figure out how to do that. :/
Thank you for the help, btw. I appreciate it.
that's really strange. have you tried disabling any extensions you have enabled that may be interfering? not sure what else it could be.
you can try pm'ing them, but they I saw somewhere that they have huge backlogs of messages to go through and they are always busy working on the code itself too.
I've tried disabling my ad-blocker to see if that's the issue, but that didn't seem to have an affect. Thanks anyway though.
