I was trying to create an additional account 2 times with 12 hours difference and every time when I press "Sign Up" waiting animation spins forever. Is it me or Lemmy.ca experiencing issues?

Had a similar issue trying to log in from a iOS firefox, tried it with different browser (safari) and it worked. Haven't had any problems on Firefox for android/windows.
Lemmy is still in very early development and there seems to be a lot of issue with signup (which sucks as most people will just give up). I've had it work sometimes in one browser, then not other times but work in another. Doesn't seem to be browser or platform specific, just timing or change in what values are being used. It doesn't return any user feedback to the user on validation or other error so all problems look the same at the moment.
Using Safari instead of Chrome solved the problem. I tried so many variations with different account names/emails/passwords that finally I sent a version where account name and explanation why I chose this name got diverged... let see if I get the approval
