Subscribing to channels hosted on other instances fails (lemmy.ml)

When I try to subscribe with a remote account (I am on peertube.social) I get this error:

Cannot fetch information of this remote account

Is there a fix to that, or some other way to subscribe?

I think it is because you are subscribing to the account. On Peertube, an account can have multiple channels. So try to subscribe only to a channel and not to the account who owns the channel.

Go to the account page and then subscribe to the channel.

Thanks, but that's not it, both "subscribe to a channel" and "subscribe to all channels" result in an error message
