Cannot subscribe to communities since the v18 update (lemmy.ca)

Since the update to Version 18, I have been unable to subscribe to any communities (local and federated), with the subscribe button simply not appearing. I am using Firefox 114.0.2 with uBlock Origin running. Anyone know what I might do to fix this issue? Thanks!!!

Edit1: Just tried the same process using Brave Browser, and experiencing the same issue:

Edit2: @floofloof's workaround of searching for the community via the "communities" tab seems to work intermittently on both Chrome and Firefox!

Magically, this seems to have worked on Chrome!! Thanks for the workaround--hopefully Firefox is better supported by the Lemmy devs soon!

Edit: And on Firefox too now! Strange, but thanks for your help!!!

I found another workaround for this issue that doesn't involve searching: just change the value of the dropdown for "Hot/Active/New/..." and it refreshes the page and makes the Subscribe button appear.

Yes, I don't think it's browser specific. I use Firefox. Glad it worked for you.
