Some of my subscriptions to lemmy communities (including this one) have been stuck on "pending" for a month and do not show up in my subscription feed.
What's up with that?

Sounds like a "language users make the language" case. As in mods want this to be AskReddit but the community users want to use it differently.
I mean, the mods are being chill about it so far. If they start dropping bans, the users trying to turn this into a support community won't actually be users anymore and they can go create asklemmyaboutsupportbutalsootherstuffwhatever and mod it themselves. In this respect, lemmy communities differ from language evolution.
For my part, I'm here for a discussion sub. I participate heavily in lemmy support communities, but that's not why I joined here.
