Am I seeing the right posts? Only 4 after a week that I’ve been here.

    I’m absolutely unable to sign into that instance. Once I click the button it just sits there and swirls forever. I can’t pull any of their communities up in a search from .world either, even if I use the specific name like [email protected]

    I’m new so I can’t tell if I’m doing something wrong or if that instance is just overloaded or not syncing credentials. 🤔

      If it sits and spins like that when you try to register, it might mean the username you want is already taken, try logging in or a PW reset.

      Or if you are trying to log on using your Lemmy.world creds, it doesn’t work like that. I’d recommend just making a new account at lemmynsfw

        Yep, that’s what I was trying to do. I figured it out after I threw up my hands and spent a couple of hours digesting how the fediverse works at the technical level. I still think it’s dumb that content and the ability to interact with it is federated but authentication isn’t but that’s just MHO.
