It seems that a lot of new people have learned about these platforms from a popular post on Reddit. We currently see ~~78 notifications (and counting) and a pile of applications on piefed.ca~~ too many registration applications for me to keep this up to date.
I am pinning this thread on both platforms for new users to pop in to and ask questions. Please give them a warm welcome!
Please let us know how we can help! For example, here are some tips on finding communities: https://fedecan.ca/en/guide/lemmy/for-users/how-to-find-communities The guide says Lemmy, but the steps are the same on Piefed
Since a lot of people arrived here from r/BuyCanadian, maybe you will be interested in !buycanadian@lemmy.ca

Can you try again now? I think there are two potential causes:
I just reinstalled Voyager and tried it all again and the same error is occurring.
I will take a break for now and try again later on. I love how much help I've received and hopefully my issue can be resolved and help others in the future.
Are you able to view piefed.ca in the web browser of the device that you're trying to use the app on? Do you have a VPN enabled?
That should hopefully narrow down where the problem is. We might also be having issues with CloudFlare, we're looking into that :)
Yes I was able to access piefed.ca on the browser, that's how I was replying initially. No VPN enabled at the time.
I did manage to sign in on the app earlier. I think it must've just been a server load issue from earlier and it is working now!
Thank you!
