I'm getting a lot of comments from friends that they can't make an account. I went to make test accounts on both lemmy.ml and lemmy.world and both are throbbing indefinitely (didn't see any network traffic either).

I had the spinning wheel issue when trying to sign up at midwest.social this morning. I left it for an hour and it was still spinning so I copied my answer, closed the tab, and reapplied. After 3 attempts it went through instantly. YMMV with other instances though ¯\(ツ)/¯

I hope it didn't send multiple requests but considering I applied to Beehaw.org a week ago and left it spinning all day and never got a confirmation email, I assume it didn't.
