Several communities I have tried to join from this account appear to sit at SUBSCRIBE PENDING forever, but when subscribing to the same group from my Friendica account seem to sit in WAITING FOR APPROVAL for ~1 minute.

In both cases I appear to be able to interact with the community without any difficulty.

    Bro I can’t even figure out how to subscribe to a community from the community’s page rather than having to scroll through the entire “communities” list and pick from there. Also not sure how to have a feed comprised of only my subscribed communities

      To subscribe to a community when you’re on its page, look near the top of the page, and you’ll see a box inside of which is the word “sidebar.” Click on that, and you’ll see a list of options, including “subscribe.” Sort of the same thing as you’d do in Reddit. To see only subscribed communities, look on the main landing page when you open lemmy. There’s three lines of boxes (will they look like boxes to me) near the top of the second line at the right there are three options: subscribed/local/all. It defaults to local, so just click on subscribed. Hope this helps. I’d include a screenshot, but I’m not sure how to do it yet. Maybe someone else can if you’re still not clear.
