First off, please bear with me before shoving something down. Totally aware that lemmy.ml has been experiencing a significant surge in traffic lately.

This is my (sort of) test account, and I wanted to get a new account name that actually represents me. It’s been almost 2 days since I signed up, and the process seems to be stuck in limbo. Not sure if that’s because the username and email address I attempted to register are too cryptic and come off as a dummy.

What’s worse is that I mistakenly used the wrong username during sign-up, and now I’m eager to reclaim my email address.

Yes, while I could have easily created an account on another instance and still interacted here, I have my own personal, complicated, and admittedly silly reasons for wanting to have my main under this domain.

All I wanted to know is whether lemmy.ml will open up again in the future. I don’t mind waiting if it will. And not sure how can I reclaim my email address.

The cultist behavior of people who attack facts here is pretty out of control. It's sad to see you have to say this. The servers have been crashing constantly while the project leaders do everything they can to misdirect people from PostgreSQL TRIGGER logic they could remove in minutes.
