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.

    I’m not sure how a subjective opinion can be wrong, but whatever.

    It is easy to use.

    Seriously, the only difficulty is in being patient. That’s it. It takes some instances longer to approve an account than others, which can mean it’ll be a big longer after that before you can log in.

    Like, I just made an alt account for this user name recently took overnight to be able to log in. No weird crap, just patience. I’ve had to wait longer on independent forums for hobbies. Same experience with a recently made alt of my author user name, only it took maybe an hour before I could log in.

    There’s zero difficulty in the process that isn’t also present everywhere online.

    Lemmy is a community driven, usually small admin team network. Big whoop, a little delay. It isn’t like you can’t scroll passively while you wait. You have access to that much, and if someone has the sense to do that, then maybe they have the sense to pay attention to instance and community rules as well.
