[SOLVED] - Lemmy doesn't notify you if the username is taken and just hangs indefinitely if it is taken. Just an fyi to anybody else who's having issues signing up for a Lemmy instance.
Title says it all. I've tried multiple browsers, restarting, flushing dns and everything else I can think to troubleshoot this on my end. Whenever I try to sign up it just hangs infinitely on the page that I took a screenshot of, with the submit button spinning.
How can I join this side of lemmy? Lemmy.world is pretty good but I would like to be in an instance that is defederated from lemmygrad please lol
I am having a similar issue. Used the same name as this (answers_to_kv). I saw that my username exists and the account was created yesterday (the day I made it) but I am unable to log in :/ any advice?
Yeah same. I looked up my username and it was created the same day I created it. Tried logging and canβt progress past the loading icon.
Lemmy creates the account before being approved - it is quite silly. If you can give me the username, I can give it a look, we're currently going through all the backlog for people we missed.
@Lionir
Ahh I see, no worries! The username should be:
MoodyCat
Edit: just wanted to confirm that I was able to login!
Same. Made an account there Saturday, after checking for another user with the same name. For a 404 error, tried to sign up, and got stuck with a spinner when trying to log in.
