I'm currently struggling to find my home. I have an account here at lemmy.ml, where most of my posts are, and one at kbin.

Why do you think your instance is the place to be?

I joined mander.xyz because it has a central theme around the natural sciences. It could possibly include STEM content as well; there is an ongoing discussion about it. The admin(s) are present and very responsive.

For anyone with a love of science and/or nature I recommend it highly as a home instance of Lemmy.

I'm trying to set up another account at mander but I haven't had any success.

Really?! That is strange. I just tested account creation and it appears to work fine. What error are you getting?

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Hmm. The server is up right now. Does it give an error or just sit there?

I can say I've had horrible luck trying to sign up through the apps. It works much better through a standard browser for initial sign up.

Mander has been lovely so far. Plenty of interesting content and chill people. It was the first instance I saw when browsing that looked friendly and yet didn't require me to write an essay to register an account.
