An automod is making posts asking for moderators in subs where the mods have either been purged or left reddit on their own accord. The predictable result is a flood of copypasted applications from bots.

John Lennons anthem of disbelief in anything but reality.

Fanny was an American all-female band, active in the early 1970s. They were one of the first notable rock groups to be made up entirely of women, the third to sign with a major label (after Goldie & the Gingerbreads and the Pleasure Seekers), and the first to release an album on a major label (in 1970). They achieved two top 40 singles on the Billboard Hot 100 and released five albums.

Sisters June Millington (born April 14, 1948, Manila, Philippines) and Jean Millington (born May 25, 1949, Manila, Philippines) moved with their family from the Philippines to Sacramento, California in 1961. In high school they formed an all-girl band called the Svelts with June on guitar, Jean on bass, Addie Lee on guitar, and Brie Brandt on drums. Brandt was later replaced by Alice de Buhr (born September 4, 1949, Mason City, Iowa). When the Svelts disbanded, de Buhr and Lee formed another all-female group called Wild Honey. The Millington sisters later joined this band, which played Motown covers and eventually moved to Los Angeles.

In January 1970, Nickey Barcley was asked to join Fanny as a singer and keyboardist. She was one of the main songwriters and lead singers in the group, and appeared on all their albums, adding soul, blues and funk influences to the group's overall sound.

I'm on a different instance than this community and no comments are showing up for me, even though I can see that they exist when I visit the community while not logged in from the lemmy.world server. It also keeps being stuck on "Subscribe pending" and won't actually subscribe to the community.

I have also had trouble posting anything about this problem here. Hopefully this gets through, as it is a heads up about why there may not be a lot of new users subscribing and engaging yet: They simply don't have access.

Hopefully lemmy.world will fix its server load problems at some time, so users outside of the instance are able to participate properly in the community.

I wanted to subscribe to https://sh.itjust.works/c/[email protected], but it just says "Subscription pending", and while I can post there and it shows all of the posts in the community, it doesn't show any comments to those posts.

If I visit the community directly through lemmy.world (without being logged in to an account of course), it shows that there are multiple comments to all of the posts, but if I visit through my account on this instance it shows 0 comments to all of the posts.

I don't know if it is connected to the "subscription pending" issue, but I have tried refreshing to make the subscription pending change into subscribed, but it doesn't happen.

Edit: I just tried posting in the community in the vain hope of establishing a connection to it from here, but when I press the post button it just continously loads while the error message "SyntaxError: JSON.parse: unexpected character at line 1 column 1 of the JSON data" keeps popping up in the corner.
