I’m sure this has been asked and answered before but I can’t find it.

How do I subscribe to a community from another instance? I read you just search communities with the url of the community you want to join, but that didn’t work for me. Even with variations in formatting: !community@instance, for example.

Perhaps there should be a sticky somewhere that explains the slight complexities of the fediverse since it’s clearly a bit foreign to most users. I’ve been on lemmy for over a year and I’m constantly discovering functionality I was unaware of thanks to all the new lemons coming in and asking questions.

    Is it normal for it to say “Subscribe Pending”? Does that mean its up for moderator review or jjust that the instance needs a moment to make some type of copy of the data?
