Already signed up. Got the login verification email, followed through and did the security thing, “type the word from our sidebar below” passed all that and can not login.

I appreciate that but don’t bother. I tried with the instance listed in this post and still got the same login issues even after receiving the email to login and passing the security check etc. I deleted the app. I’ve tried enough times and never had any success so I won’t be trying again.

I think they signed up at 50501.chat.

It's a shame that Lemmy is missing out on new users just due to signup issues.

George Carlin has a lot to say about half the people on the planet.

Could just be paid actor. Reddit has been ticking off all the other red flags already, so why would it not try and destroy reputations this way?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago

Oh no. Anyway.

What a wimp. I couldn't sign up on my first instance so I lurked for a week and tried another instance. Just think of how much the fediverse would be saved of my pleasant quips if I gave up so easily

Meh, oh well. Good luck to them.

You can never expect perfection on any service. Especially a non for profit. It takes time and sometimes technical difficulties.

Also, there's a bunch of other instances to try or even trying to find contact information should have been first instinct.

Idk, I'm on lemm.ee because I tried sh.itjust.works and just never got an email. It is frustrating when it happens

Hey there! I'm sorry that you didn't receive the activation email. Can I ask how long ago this was? I recently changed our email provider and want to make sure it wasn't after the fact. Thanks!

I accidentally did one for ml and world's and never got a response, realized those are authotarian sites

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago

Really dodged a bullet with ml

Good. Let the stupids hit the darwinian great filter of "figure out how to make an account with more than 2 brain cells" and never make it here. Will hopefully mitigate yet another eternal September.
