As the name implies, just wanted to ask whether it is normal to not to see posts from the communities where your subscription request is still pending. I checked the page of the community and found that there had been activity there, but none has shown up, leading me to believe that it might be a federation issue.

Never used Lemmy until now, so any and all advice is very much appreciated.

    I’ve had this issue before. My limited understanding is that your home server fetches copies of communities somebody on your server is subbed to. But if you’re the first person, it can take it a few hours to federate (took mine a day.)

    In addition to the federation issues, make sure your language settings are correct. If you haven’t included both your spoken languages and “Undetermined” in the language settings, then the UI will not display posts for the options you’re missing
