When I try to subscribe to a community and it says “Pending”, what does that mean from a technical perspective?
The subscribe feature in Jerboa is somehwat broken. It should happen almost instantly… unless there is an approval process of some sort to join a community (I’m not aware of that, but maybe some communities can be set to private with an approval process). On the web UI on the other hand, everything happens instantly.
So, yeah, a PITA, I know, but it’s best to add communities through the web UI… at least for now.
I don’t know what it is. However, I can access the content with this warning
Accessing the content is not a problem, commenting as well. You can access it even if you’re not subscribed (in most cases, i.e. if the community is not private). The problem is the feed. You don’t get anything from that community in your feed unless you’re subscribed to it. Exceptions are communities that are local to your instance, you get feeds from them even if you’re not subscribed to them (since the default in Jerboa regarding feeds is Local feeds).
