I found an active thread in a sub on another instance I’d like to participate in. When I sub to the thread from sh.itjust.works there are no comments; I assume that’s because sh.itjust.works only starts syncing communities after the first subscription. So now I can either read the thread on an instance I don’t have a login for, or participate in an empty version of the thread on sh.itjust.works.

Is there any way to participate in the active thread at this point? Thanks.

edit: Just checked my subscription to the new community is [pending]. Maybe that’s it?

edit2: Thanks to @Barbarian I can at least sub to one of the pending communities, and the others are on lemmy.ml, so I’ll just wait those out.

    Thanks! I’m subbed now. Of course, the comments that were added before I subbed aren’t accessible from here, but at least I can join any that come along later.
