Pending subscription to communities - Lemmy.world
Am I the only one with a bunch of communities I’d like to join but with a status
still on “Subscribe pending”. I’m still new to all this and I’m really loving it
so far, but man, so much stuff is confusing and counter-intuitive. Isn’t the
point of having federated instances being able to talk to each other?

Someone told me that this is because the big instances are practically DDOSed by Reddit refiugees and the servers can't process the subscriptions fast enough. And yes, I see the same pohenomenon.
Makes sense. Still, there isn't gonna be a real and strong "reddit migration" if people can't subscribe and enjoy communities in here. I saw posts yesterday about instances doing server upgrades, which is nice. If that's the issue I'd be glad to contribute financially but they have to make those upgrades fast! There's an opportunity window here and I fear the average user coming from Reddit isn't gonna be patient.
