Issue subscribing to communities - Lemmy.world

I’ve noticed that I can’t subscribe to certain communities. For example if I search for Memmy and click on subscribe, the heart goes from an outline to a filled heart and I get a notification that I subscribed to memmy. However, if I exit the Memmy community page and then re-enter, the heart is back to just an outline as if I’m not subscribed and it doesn’t show up in my subscribed communities. Not sure if it’s a Memmy problem or a federation problem. My account is through Lemmy.world, have consistent problems with Beehaw and Memmy is on Lemmy.ml [http://Lemmy.ml].

What community you were trying to subscribe to? Dec can only troubleshoot if you give more detailed information on the issue

I know that beehaw.org users can see but not able to interact (upvote/comment/save) with lemmy.world becaused they blocked lemmy.world. Not sure if the other way is allowed

Maybe try subscribe to a lemmy.world to see if it works

Lemmy.world and beehaw dony work together. You'll only see cached posts and comments from one to the other. Beehaw decided to wall off their garden from world and sh.itjust.works

As for Lemmy.ml, there is definitely issues with cross Instance Syncing. Lemmy.ml is rolling out BE 0.18 release client updates at the moment. 0.18 brings some major changes. On the website when subscribing to lemmy.ml communities you often get the "pending" status rather than "joined"

Hopefully when full 0.18 rolls out to all instances these issues will be fixed. World and other instances re still on 0.17.4

Same here. On the web app the community is listed as subscribed, but not in Memmy. Maybe an API thing.
I think it’s related to the issue I reported here. Are they the communities hosted on a different instance to where your own profile is hosted?
Subscriptions Not Displaying - lemm.ee

I have some subscriptions that are in a “subscribe pending” status when I view them on a browser on desktop or safari on my iPhone, but they still appear in my feed which I’m aware is a Lemmy bug. I’ve noticed in Memmy they don’t appear at all in my list of subscriptions, so don’t appear on homepage. Not sure if this can rectified through the app - I did submit this on TestFlight. Is anyone else having the same issue? Otherwise app has been stellar! EDIT: Typo.

No, communities from all over the instances are listed, but not all of them. I can't see any pattern here.
