Hi, I am running my own instance and generally federation works (especially with e.g. lemmy.world).
But for every lemmy.ml community i tried, I am stuck with „subscribe pending“. Interesting is, that I able to see the latest posts mostly (and they continue to do so) but i cannot see most comments or votes (still, some are visible).
What is going on here an how can i fix it?
My instance is also listed on the lemmy.ml linked instance list.
I’m also experiencing something like that. But if it’s any consolation, I am reading your post and replying to it from my own instance, so if you see this it should be a sign that federation is working.
I have little more to add than to say that I’m seeing the same thing with both lemmy.ml and programming.dev. Subscribing to communities on other instances, such as on beehaw.org or lemmy.sdf.org, appears to work fine, and I was at some point successful in subscribing to one single community on programming.dev. In addition, posting works fine as well. No idea what’s going on here; I don’t think the problem is on my side.
You’re still subscribed. it’s just visually broken.
