@Kris, I hit my email send limit for the free trial today. I'm trying to get it upgraded, but apparently I have to wait for SendGrid support to approve the upgrade for some reason. Your account was probably created, but it most likely just needs email verification. I can do so for you if you tell me the username you were trying to create.

I think my friend got hit with this too, username General_Killmore

@dzuhR2BKb3nbMKBGvdMarLDCyoVr2G hey! My username, I'm wanting is @kris but am unable to signup anyway. I'm seeing the same issue on an instance I created too but haven't had the chance to debug.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Ok, I think I fixed it for you. Please try again.

@snowe still no dice unfortunately

Sorry, I think a lot of people have been having trouble with this. your signup worked, I just had to approve your account. Try logging in with the username password you gave when trying initially.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

@snowe that worked. Thanks!

@dzuhR2BKb3nbMKBGvdMarLDCyoVr2G I've also hit a constant loading when trying to register or login, and no verification email. My username is @chrs

Ok, I think I fixed it for you. Please try again.

All good! Thanks.

It's really cool being able to federate through Mastodon and having the content show up here, but I also think there should be a simpler way to get in contact without having an account in this instance. Just food for thought, registration issues affecting new users are kinda hard to report, but possible, using mastodon as we did here.

That's a good point. I need to get something else set up. I've been considering discord, but it's a lot to handle you know? I need more admins to help me out.

I had this issue when trying to create my account with the full quote "SoLongAndThanks4AllTheFish". Apparently this name is too long and results in a silent error - the "Register" Button just kept loading. Maybe you have a similar problem?

@kris808 @meta
(Posting from Mastodon)
I'm also experiencing this issue, seems like my account might be in limbo. Username "clifspeare"

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Actually, I seem to be able login now. Thanks!

@meta when pressing register button it just loads. On mobile so can't really help in diagnosing.

I was able to log in on mobile but on desktop I get stuck with a loading spinner.
