Happy to help! See, all this subscribing I've been doing has led to some useful things learned and therefore hasn't been a total waste of the last 12 days of my life 👀
Fair enough! For reference though I think the "pending" bug is just a visual thing and you're actually subscribed anyway. I have a few of those (mostly from .ml) but they show up in the subscribed feed just fine.
Too many interests most of which are quite small and niche is definitely a major problem in more than one area of my life lol, Lemmy is just the latest 😅
Just to add on to the other comment, OP you should check your language settings! Make sure you've got both "undetermined" AND English selected, as well as any others you want ofc.
Yeah it's a tricky one to fix because the federated nature of everything means there's probably no instance that has every possible community indexed in search.
That's where tools like browse.feddit.de come in but that's a little bit finicky too and I'm not sure how things get indexed there.
Saw someone was building a more advanced search interface yesterday but I can't remember the URL now, it looked promising though so will come back and update you when I find it!
P.s I didn't post the link as some kind of passive aggressive thing I just thought you'd like to see it 😄
It's admittedly a very low tech explanation but if all the suites are next to each other, perhaps they just have removable dividing walls to allow for different size requirements?
Yup, it's been extremely effective. I got engaged at the end of last year and certain types of people seemed genuinely horrified that I didn't get a diamond ring.
Anecdotally though those tended to be older folks so I think maybe it's losing effectiveness and younger people are seeing how absurd and arbitrary the whole thing is.
This is also how I feel watching discussions of how to contribute to Lemmy and what needs doing, when I previously thought I was a halfway competent web dev.
