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!

I have this issue too. My workaround is to click on the "create post" button, and then click the browser's back button. Then the subscribe button shows up.

I've also noticed that for me if I open the comments on a random post within the sub, then the button shows up on the sidebar usually. No idea if that will work for anyone else though.
