Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Please don't post about US Politics.
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either [email protected] or [email protected].
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email [email protected]. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

Lemmygrad.ml has been de-federated by all other instances. Maybe that's the reason. It's odd though that it works for some communities but not for others.
I have seen in other threads though that some people ran into similar issues of not finding a community with the url, etc. Unfortunately, I can't remember what the responses to that were. You might be able to find those comments if you search for posts regarding issues with search for communities.
Edit I found the following post. Does it help you?

If it still doesn't help you, try to contact your instance admin.
Edit 2 The "subscribe pending" loop has been described by others as a visual bug. If the cancelling and re-subscribing doesn't work, try if you can vote or post in that community even though the status still says pending.
I wonder why it was defederated. So far it just seems like a bunch of edgy left leaning people, but maybe I'll eventually find out why.
That other post seems to describe the same issue, but has no solution. I guess it helped me in knowing that there isn't a solution yet, haha
I'll try to message the admin, thanks
FWIW, I don't think it has anything to do with federation or instances since I am having the exact same issue with my lemmy.world account.
