I am seeing posts from this community, I can seemingly create posts and replies, yet it's showing "Subscribe Pending". Is this a bug or is it actually pending?

It is a known bug. I tried to find the source but was not able to to find it again. From what I recall, when it says "Subscribe Pending" you are subscribed, it's just a display issue and should be fixed next release. I'll update if I can find the source

Edit: still not the source I was remembering, but here is an open GitHub issue for this: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/issues/1315

Appreciate the clarification.

Are you sure you are actually subscribed when it shows "pending"?

None of my accounts are on lemmy.ml, and this only seems to happen for me when I subscribe to lemmy.ml communities, so I'd bet lemmy.ml is just struggling with the increased traffic

I know that I've been constantly getting HTTP 500 errors when trying to visit lemmy.ml, so I'd definitely would say its just traffic issues on their side.

I'm also interested in this

I think it is a bug and here's why

I have setup a lemmy instance to understand how it works and hopefully contribute something meaningful

My instance has 2 users, both are subscribed to the same cross-instance community, but only one is showing Subscribe Pending even if I un-sub and re-sub

I am not aware of any approval system to subscribe to a community, so I believe the approval was received the community instance, but the "accept" response data was missed / dropped when returning to your host instance

I get it on some communities and not on others. So it isn't consistent with me. I get it more on larger communities.
