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?

Nothing works for me.

And I can't even add it manually in my subscription list since there is no option for that.

Maybe it's my instance. I will make an account on another one later and try again

Is it only one remote account that you tried subscribing to?

There was one account (https://share.tube/a/hexdsl/video-channels) that I couldn't manage to subscribe to at all, because neither the account-subscribe nor the channel-subscribe worked.

I was able to subscribe to e.g. this account, though: https://share.tube/a/chriswere/video-channels

Thanks. In my case it's on all channels/accounts unfortunately
