minus-squaresquigglemonster@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up11·edit-22 years agoI’ve got some "pending"s on kbin.social communities, which I don’t think is defererated? Is that a bug or do some communities just set up that way?
minus-squareSolidGrue@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up7·2 years agoThat’s the bug others have mentioned. Sometimes it’s the remote service timing out, sometimes it’s the local service. Sometimes it silently fails, other times it silently succeeds but still says it failed, and many times it succeeds and does the ‘Joined’ thing. This is all a work in progress. Give it time.
