MODERATORS
There's no such option on Lemmy at the moment. It can mean two things: A) the instance is overloaded, which happens frequently with lemmy.ml B) the instance has defederated from your home instance
Oh i see thx!
I am not 100% sure, but I think that is automatic when you sub to a remote community.
It's a bug, I have been able to tap it and hit Subscribe again and it works after a couple seconds.
So 2 votes for bug, 2 votes for privacy reasons. I too want to know.
