Some of my subscriptions to lemmy communities (including this one) have been stuck on “pending” for a month and do not show up in my subscription feed.
What’s up with that?

just a visual thing, don’t worry about it. it’ll function just like if you are subscribed
This is a support question, related to how to use Lemmy. Please see the sidebar for suggestions on where this question would fit.
Ignore this “you’re asking in the wrong place” response.
Others have been experiencing this too. It appears to have no real affect on your subscription status. I have a few like that as well. They still behave as if they are successfully subscribed.
Pfft. This dude. It’s like this guy’s where you google something to find the answer, arrive at a prospective link and “omg why are you asking, go Google it”.
Do you realize that you’re advising OP to ignore a mod (in a reply to said mod) of this community who is being perfectly chill while informing OP about the published rule 3, which the community mods have stated they’re being relaxed about while so many new Lemmings are joining, but not giving up on forever?
Rule 3 is quoted below, and helpfully directs people to active communities that are dedicated to support:
We get that, but just saying “go somewhere else to ask this” and not actually providing an answer at the same time comes off as pompous and OP isn’t likely to delete their post just to post it again elsewhere.
Mod here. The fun thing is that I actually did remove this post three hours ago when I posted that comment. Due to federation issues, people are still able to comment on it.
If we answered all of the questions, why not just merge with !lemmy_support@lemmy.ml? Communities need to be able to have their own identity.
As the end of the day, these are the rules for this community. If you’d prefer another, you may want to check out !asklemmy@lemmy.world.
Yep. I realize it.
Try unsubscribing and then resubscribe if they aren’t showing up in your subscriptions
If you go back and reload the community Page, does it remains stuck in pending?
I fixed this on some communities by unsubscribe and subscribing again (after the instances updated to 0.18.X)
“have you tried turning it off and back on again?”
i.e. i’ve seen it correct itself by unsubscribing and subscribing again
