Subscribing to a community from another instance always shows "Subscribe Pending". Is this a bug? (lemmy.ml)

I am seeing posts from this community, I can seemingly create posts and replies, yet it's showing "Subscribe Pending". Is this a bug or is it actually pending?

I think it is a bug and here's why

I have setup a lemmy instance to understand how it works and hopefully contribute something meaningful

My instance has 2 users, both are subscribed to the same cross-instance community, but only one is showing Subscribe Pending even if I un-sub and re-sub

I am not aware of any approval system to subscribe to a community, so I believe the approval was received the community instance, but the "accept" response data was missed / dropped when returning to your host instance
