I’ve been trying to get up and running in the fediverse since Tuesday. I have registered for accounts with several Lemmy instances (https://sh.itjust.works/, lemmy.srv.eco, and others). In every case I haven’t gotten a registration email. When I try to log in I get an error saying that my email is not verified. It’s frustrating because I’ve downloaded Liftoff and wefwef and Jeroba - but I can’t sign in to any account to participate.
I’m glad that my account registration worked for kbin. If anyone has experience registering with lemmy would be great to understand what I’m doing wrong or if it really is that these servers are so backed up that they are not sending out automated emails. Or can I use an email address to register with only one lenmy instance and never with any other?
I had a hard time registering with beehaw.org during the last growth spurt. It took a few days for the registration to go through. Once it did, I got approved right away. Give it a few days to calm down. Of course, now that you are on kbin, you really don’t have to sign up anywhere else for most purposes.
