Already signed up. Got the login verification email, followed through and did the security thing, “type the word from our sidebar below” passed all that and can not login.

I appreciate that but don’t bother. I tried with the instance listed in this post and still got the same login issues even after receiving the email to login and passing the security check etc. I deleted the app. I’ve tried enough times and never had any success so I won’t be trying again.

I think they signed up at 50501.chat.

It's a shame that Lemmy is missing out on new users just due to signup issues.

This is my big problem with the Fediverse right now, not just Lemmy but Mastodon as well. Signing up is confusing as hell, finding the same communities as what we're used to on Reddit on Lemmy is borderline impossible when presented with the same communities across each instance. I follow several Politics communities and then I get a home page with multiple posts of the same link but different communities.

Grandma and Grandpa are on Facebook and Reddit because it's dead simple to create an account on both and find communities. They ain't coming to Lemmy without significant changes to the sign up processes. They don't care about centralized vs decentralized, is it as easy as what I'm trying to replace?
