When I try to join a community, it just changes to pending. They are yet to show on my feed. Is this expected?

Mine has done this for a few seconds on the communities I have tried joining, but then resolves to Joined. It may just be the system struggling to keep up with the influx of people. Myself included.

I have three "!subscribe pending"s in my list after a session of joining a few days back. For me, they are showing up in my sidebar and I can post to them as usual, it seems. It is just that they don't change from 'pending'.

Gotcha, thanks! Guess the system is just under load.
