It works, at least. The only issue I'm seeing is that if I try to follow 'sublemmies' (or whatever the Lemmy equivalent for a subreddit is called) from certain other federated servers, they just sit in 'subscribe pending'. A fediverse that creates a lot of friction when spreading out beyond your local instance is a bit of a bummer.
Yeah I’ve noticed that also. Not sure what’s up with that
I've had a lot of issues trying to subscribe as well. Even searching in Jerboa has been a bit of an issue, I've had to go onto my computer and search for a community I know that exists and subscribe that way. It won't otherwise even show up in the app.
All things I'm sure will get ironed out soon enough. I quite like this whole thing, if I'm being honest. Doesnt have angsty reddit bullshit yet either, but I'm sure that will soon follow when the problematic mods start showing up.
Same here with Jerboa, is there even a search option in there?
I like sublemon. Wtf is even a lemmy?
I think they're "communities" here?
Do moderators have the ability to "require approval" for new subscribers? I'd assumed that "pending" meant that someone had to "let me in" because that's how they chose to run their corner of the internet (which is great).
Is it actually just lag/a tech issue?
As far as I can tell, this is only an issue if you're the first one from your instance to subscribe to that community in the other instance. This is because your instance has to tell the other instance to start sending new posts its way. As well as any other subsequent updates. Lemmy instances work on a queue, so it may be a while before the other instance gets to that request if they have a lot of load.
