How come whenever I subscribe to a Lemmy on a different instance it just says “subscription pending?” I don’t know if these means I’ll never actually be subscribed, or if I am and will see the posts in my feed but am not counted among subscribers from that instance? I’m not tech savvy so I’m hoping someone can help!
I’ve had this issue on my instance before. It seems to be the federation between the instances taking some time to stick. I’d wait a bit and repeat the process, it could be especially slow depending on the load of both instances.
