So I’m definitely missing something with Lemmy…I’ve tried creating an account on their site, but it’s never gone through. I know we get the same stuff on kbin as we do on Lemmy, but I was curious to try both out.
Surely it’s not the same account for both, right?
I tried creating my account on Lemmy about a month ago, and it just kept doing the scrolly-wheel of doom and it never appeared to go through. I tried again today to see if it would work now, but, when I try to create the account, it says that it already exists, but trying to log in does nothing.
Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated!
What instance are you trying to sign up for? Some instances are completely overloaded, but if you try signing up for lemm.ee or vlemmy.net or any other smaller instances you’ll probably have better luck. Most instances will still give you access to the whole lemmy fediverse, but rules do vary across instances so make sure to read them on each instance to help make your decision
Which instance of Lemmy did you try? You might try another instance.
@nocturne213 I was trying to sign in on lemmy.world, but based on you and the other comments, I should try a different instance. Any suggestions for alternatives?
Thanks for responding!
Here is a list of instances, https://join-lemmy.org/instances
I would give lemm.ee a shot.
@nocturne213 This is perfect, thank you!
@_spiffy I was trying on lemmy.world, which I’m guessing is full. Any ideas for alternatives?
Thanks for the help!
@fishsticks Yeah, I probably just borked something on my end. I wouldn’t be surprised.
Did you check your junk mail folder?
There’s hundreds of different Lemmy instances. On which one did you try to sign up? Lemmy.world?
