Pending Community Subscriptions (beehaw.org)

This is probably just a lack of fundamental understanding on my part but some communities I want to subscribe to; I'll hit the sub button, it won't change status for a while, I'll refresh and it'll say "Subscribe Pending"

A couple communities have been stuck like this for a day or so now. But other communities I'll mash the sub button a bit more then it'll switch over to "Joined"

Can communities be setup such that subscribers have to be approved by a comm mod or has my subscription request fallen into the void on the backend somewhere and I should try to subscribe again?

Thanks for any clarifications about this!

I'm noticing the same thing for some (but not all) subscriptions to communities on other instances. I'll try retrying for some of them though, hadn't considered it.

Update: Not sure if I'm just lucky but clicking 'Subscribe Pending' then resubscribing appears to have fixed all of them.
