I subscribed (or think I did) to a community on another instance, but the button went from "Subscribe" to "Subscribe Pending" and has stayed that way for days (see image).

I didn't think anything of it but noticed this morning my comments posted from my lemm.ee account weren't showing on another instance (kbin.social) where I have an account. Other federated accounts are showing on both.

Is there something funky going on when it says "Subscribe Pending" or is everything working as expected?

I read somewhere on one of these federated sites (I'd have to dig through my history to find it) that it's essentially the spaghetti code that is Reddit. This person, who claimed to have worked at Reddit years ago, said that the aggregation engine for things like r/all is very inefficient and when thousands of subreddits went dark it wouldn't be able to parse (or something like that).
