In Jerboa that first link at beehaw gives me “404: coundnt_find_community”, but then I clicked the second link and it looks like it worked.

Hmm, well I’ll keep hacking away at it

Oh it’s not that big a deal. I guess it sounds like I’m frustrated, but text can be like that. I’m just trying to figure some things out. And it turns out that all but one of the pending subs are on lemmy.ml, so it really is likely a server-side issue.

Thanks! I’m subbed now. Of course, the comments that were added before I subbed aren’t accessible from here, but at least I can join any that come along later.

I have about a half dozen pending subscriptions, and have tried a few times to unsub then resub over the past 24 hours to them to no avail. I’ll keep trying. But they’re not all on the same server.

I see, thanks. Yeah, that stinks. I’ll say one of my favorite ways to use reddit has been to search for threads related to an interest of mine and join the discussion, whether or not I’m subscribed to the subreddit. It seems like that’s not possible on Lemmy.

Can you explain how you do it? When I go to the thread on another instance, it says I’m not logged in and can’t comment.

No, I can post there. It’s on !audiobooks@lemmy.fmhy.ml.

Can you share how you got to a thread on another instance in a community you’re not subscribed to with Jerboa? I haven’t figured that out yet.

Thank you. I’ll stick with it until it’s no longer pending and see if it fixes itself. You’re probably right that it’s just a taxed server.
