Can you subscribe to outside communities? I think it broke in the most recent update. (programming.dev)

Hey guys,

Can one of you please try to subscribe to a community from a different instance? Say, for example, [[email protected](https://lemmy.ml/c/books) (if you are hosted in lemmy.ml, try [email protected]). I see the text "subscribe", but it is not a button and it does nothing.

Yes, I see the same glitch - in both local and remote unsubscribed communities:

local: https://lemmy.ml/c/books
remote: https://lemmy.ml/c/[email protected]

Both "Subscribe" and "Block Community" are showing as plain text, yet they are probably meant to be a tags, like the "Create a Post" button:

<a class="btn btn-secondary d-block mb-2 w-100 " href="/create_post?communityId=92531">Create a post</a>

Good catch - you could create an issue on the lemmy-UI issues

My workaround for now is to try viewing a post on that community; the Subscribe button on the post itself seems to work a little more reliably.

The issue may already be fixed in code however:

i have the same on your example (at Lemmy.world)
