I got the Pending Subscription message for days. I tried multiple instances with the same result.

Thank you

    They scraped captcha support in 0.18.0 and only opted to add it back in after massive instance admin protests. In the middle of a bot-wave, that was a major dick move. Captcha is not infallible, but it sure gets the majority of script kiddies out. The good thing is that the feature has already been (re-)developed and merged into the main app, so we know it’s coming in 0.18.1, and that was the main dealbreaker for most instance admins.

      I hope it has a short release cycle because 0.17.4 has some glaring bugs and I’m really hoping for some improvement. For example I’m getting missing posts which is kind of driving me batty. Then the sort orders don’t work right which is also causing some angst. Though not to complain, I’m enjoying my time here and I’m willing to put up with some growing pains. It’s just these issues are starting to get tiresome.

        Missing posts seems to be something of a delay in federation, so I really hope that will change. Sort order works mostly for me, only “active” seems completely defunct, so I just don’t use that at all.

        From my instance I started to see all the posts and comments coming directly from lemmy.ml immediately after they updated to 0.18. I am still unable to federate correctly with lemmy.world and other instances because they didn’t update yet so I’m confident that this problem will be largely fixed after we all update to the new version
