There has been a steady trickle of new users here today, and in the past little while, mostly due to the bad decisions that reddit is currently making.

Anyways, welcome! Feel free to look around, and if you have any questions about anything lemmy related, feel free to ask!

Also, if you feel up to it, introduce yourself in the comments below!

hmmm, that's really weird. i've had a bunch of signups today already, and had one just a few minutes ago? i'll test it out and check the logs to see if i can find anything.

i think i heard some other users have issues and i think they maybe tried with a different browser and it worked? or maybe it's an extension or something causing issues? as long as javascript/websockets is enabled there should be an issue?

actually, come to think of it, i thought i read about an issue where it wasn't giving a proper error if something went wrong, like a duplicate username or something. if you let me know the username you were trying i can see if it exists already or not?

Ah, it seems as though my issue is indeed an existing username and a lack of error message.
