    May I ask why signing up took hours? I didn’t even need to confirm anything via email, so I took me like 10 seconds.

    I used sh.itjust.works though, I think it’s meant to, well, just work. Maybe the process on other instances is more complicated?

      I signed up via beehaw and the sign up page said the request has to be manually approved.

        Ah yeah, lemmy.ml is already overloaded, they’ve requested no new sign-ups for now since they can’t handle the load. I recommend sh.itjust.works
