Newbie here. Why does it say “Subscribe pending” when I request to join certain communities? And how long does it take to obtain approval?

    I’m pretty new to all this, but I’m assuming that subscriptions are instance account specific. If there was a way to sync subscriptions between accounts in different instances then that would be good, but I’m finding that without subscriptions the default feeds are kind of all over the place.

      Yep.

      So I have one primary account on Lemmy.world and then have additional accounts localized to those instances.

      For the time being things are a bit of a hassle because there’s no good way to migrate from one instance to another and bring your data with you, and the underlying lemmy software is still in development.

      Effectively we’re doing this in production!
