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.

I tried to make a sh.itjust.works account earlier today as a backup, when I verified the email I couldn't login, it told me my details were incorrect, the details I'd just saved in my browser from the account creation process. Shit does not just work.

I mean I'll get around to making another account on another instance, but sh.itjust.works has account creation issues. The people acting elitist about it are fucken gronks because they haven't actually experienced the issue.

Hey there,
Sorry you've had issues.
If you can PM me your email I can take care of it.
I'm also on Matrix, which might be ideal as lemmy PMs aren't exactly secure (they can be read by your local admin as well as the remote admin, so mihht not bmuch of a problem in this case, but still)

Can you check by user name? Same u/n, your instance.

[–] InEnduringGrowStrong@sh.itjust.works 4 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Your email was already verfied in the database, but if you follow that link again lemmy just tells you it failed instead of telling you it's already verified.
You should be able to just login.
If not let me know.
Worst case it might need a password reset.
We did test new signups again this morning and it worked.

I went through the pw reset process, set a new pw and it let me login. Thx

sh.itjust.works

Give that link a try again otherwise as @InEnduringGrowStrong@sh.itjust.works mentioned send us a PM with your account and we'll manually verify it.

Thanks

Database query says it's already verified
