I have subscriptions on lemmy.ml which still refuse to go through after a couple weeks. Just tried resubscribing one of them and it’s again stuck on pending. I don’t know of any rush of new users happening right this minute so I doubt the server is overloaded, and the community doesn’t require moderator approval to be subscribed, so I really don’t know what the holdup is. But like OP, I have several that just refuse to go through.
I’m on lemmy.ml and it’s slow as hell and half the time errors out and it’s been like this for days. They’ve been under heavy load for a while and I don’t know when it’s going to taper off. I’m almost positive it’s just a lot of data isn’t making it to lemmy.ml because it’s timing out.
Oddly enough, I just ran across a new community to subscribe to on lemmy.ml, and that one went right through. I also noticed another oddity (which is probably related directly to the subscribe bug)… the first time I click the subscribe button, it turns dark. If I click it a second time I get the Pending message. However for this new community, I clicked the subscribe button just once, then reloaded the page and it said I was subscribed. Going to try that with some others and see if I have any better luck.
[EDIT] I do seem to be making progress now by reloading the page. The first one took some time, and it seems like subscriptions are going slowly no matter what server they’re on right now. I’ve seeing several that don’t even show the subscribe button until I reload the page again a few minutes later but I’ve been able to get fully subscribed to all the groups I’ve checked again so far.

I just figured this out 30 minutes ago and I’ve been doing this exact sane thing. Fixed all my pending communities
