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.

    Exactly. Everyone who’s not technically knowledgeable, or likes to dig deep into a new environment, or just had a tiring day, should stay out. Let them continue to slurp the corpo fascist propaganda on Reddit. Lemmy should be exclusively for the elite. Who are we to offer sanctuary and a sane environment to everyone? Lol.

    “this type of user”. Great mindset.

      Had a tiring day and giving up for now is certainly one thing, understandable and relatable. Trying one instance, failing, and screaming down from atop your high horse ‘Don’t bother, I won’t be trying again’ is sanctimonious entitled BS.
