Why can’t I follow communities from this instance

I recently attempted to follow communties on this instance from mastodon and they all say pending. Does anyone know why this is happening? Is it possibly related to the federation problems of 0.19?
I made a github issue but I’m not sure if the Devs will help or not since on one hand it’s not their software but on the other hand it seems like a federation issue. 🤷​

    @lemann I think these are very different issues on Mastodon than on Lemmy since on mastodon when its pending it isn’t just a visual glitch like on Lemmy, it’s just not letting you follow.

    I’ve experienced what you’re describing on Lemmy where it shows as pending but does show up in the subscriptions list after a few refreshes. It unfortunately doesn’t seem to work out like that on Mastodon when following users or communities that are on Lemmy 0.19 instances.
