That’s interesting. I’ve had a few communities show as “pending”, but they still appear under my subscriptions view on my home page.

It’s just a UI bug. You’re subscribed. Probably doesn’t help lemmy has been overwhelmed by new users and activity.
Is it built on chromium?
I currently use Firefox simply because it’s the one privacy focused browser not built on chromium. I don’t want to contribute to Google’s monopoly over browser traffic.
“Arguably worse for privacy than Reddit”
This poster clearly has some sort of vendetta against Lemmy and/or its creators with the comments on politics, etc.
Reddit takes your activity and packages/sells your data to advertisers. Lemmy does not. To say Lemmy is worse than Reddit for privacy is just not true.
I’d take that post with a hefty grain of salt.
Unfortunately most of the “privacy phones” really aren’t that great of a smartphone experience due to them running Linux which isn’t nearly as developed for smartphone use as Android or iOS.
I personally use a Samsung Fold 4, and run Firefox w/ add ons, DDG for search and app tracking protection.
Apple likes to boast about how iOS is more privacy focused than Android, though. Grain of salt.
That’s unfortunate. I hate seeing this news because it means that all the other streaming platforms are going to follow suit soon, which brings us right back to cable, essentially. Must subscribe to 5 different streaming services each in order to have access to all the programming you want, no more splitting up accounts with friends.
Glad that I just setup a Plex server, looks like I’m gonna need it.
