Should lemmy community mods accept your subscription request in some community? (discuss.tchncs.de)

When I click to subscribe some groups it goes to Pending stage for a long time before it gets to subscribed.

Is that because the mods accepted my subscription request or is it taking long time?

It happens when you subscribe to a community on another instance. I don't know any of the details but I'm assuming that subscribing doesn't require approval.

I think instances communicate by bundling requests into larger batches sent every minute or so to save on network overhead. As such, it may take a while for low-priority interactions to get through.

Pretty sure it's just bugged. I subscribed to !pathofexile@pathofexile-discuss.com over a month ago and it still shows "pending".
