So I’m a reddit refugee and trying to understand how Lemmy works. Some of the communities I try to join say “subscribe pending”. Why is that? Anyway to fix this?

That’s not true, it means that the instance hosting the community hasn’t confirmed the subscription request. This confirmation seems to get lost sometimes if the instance is under heavy load.
Of course it’ll also mean that subscription requests to defederated instances will stay in a pending state. As the other instance will just ignore the request.
