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.

Does Mbin or Piefed have the same issues? I know you guys prefer Lemmy, but if Lemmy keeps alienating people because signups don't work, then maybe it's time to recommend one of those two instead of bleeding potential newcomers.

Interstellar is only available on Android.

Piefed still doesn't have mobile apps.

I'm not that attached to Lemmy myself, but mobile apps are a deal breaker for a lot of users

Oh, I didn't consider that one.

I really hope mbin or piefed add support for lemmy's api.

I still haven't tried to use Lemmy in a mobile app, I just use the web interface.

I would be interested to see if the Reddit crowd is more receptive to Mbin or PieFed
