MRW when my Fediverse home is overrun with spam, the sole instance owner/admin/maintainer is missing, repo inactive for months, then the site goes offline for 24 hrs and returns without explanation
It's probably a silly question, but how exactly does one join lemmy.world?
I tried making an account here yesterday, got the mail to confirm my email address, confirmed it, and now... nothing. Can't login with the credentials i made, if i do recover password, it says my email address it sent the confirmation mail to is unknown. Or do i just need to wait longer until some admin approves my account?
You probably just need to wait since you account needs to be approved. Alternatively you can join a smaller instance that doesn't require manual approval such as sh.itjust.works (what I'm using)
