Title. Basically the first press seems to do nothing but the second press actually subscribes. Why is this?

    sometimes it also happen on the website (at least for me) so I don’t think it’s some jerboa bug, also note that this app is not even in beta at the moment, just give it some time.

    Pretty sure this is an issue with Lemmy in general and not Jerboa. This happens on desktop, but weirdly not with all instances.

    I think it does send the request the first time you click, but it takes a while to get a response from another server. Try it with some communities that are local to your server and you’ll notice it’s not so much an issue. I’m not a Dev and not am authority on the topic, but I think it puts your request into a queue, this helps make sure that your request makes it to the requested server in the case that one of those servers is temporarily down for maintenance or updates.

    What I think needs to happen is just to provide a visual response to indicate that your request is sent and awaiting a response, which doesn’t usually happen until you click it a second time.

    I have found that for me it is only lemmy.ml communities. When I was on lemmy.ml it always happened. I moved to lemmy.world and now it is only lemmy.ml communities that do it. Desktop or mobile. It’s an instance problem, not a jerboa problem from what I can tell.

      This happens to me on lemmy.world as well, not using the app, curious that your move fixed it though. I think it might be a general lemmy issue rather than instance specific

      It’s a jerboa bug. Is it reported yet?

    I could be wrong but I think the first click works, there’s just no loading indicator, so then you click a second time because it’s unclear if anything is happening, and then shortly afterwards the successful response from the first click comes back and it just looks like the second click did something.
