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.

    Looks like Voyager confused them

    I don’t see the 50501 instance at all on Voyager, and I’ve noticed that issue with a few of them. If they made their account on that instance I bet they tried to then sign in to .world (the default on Voyager) and then pissed themself off and wrote it off, refusing any future help.

    I can’t know how much they tried but the way those interactions went it doesn’t feel like they really put much effort into solving this problem

      I found it on Voyager, but had to search for it with the exact correct spelling “50501.chat” and I only knew about it because I found it referenced in another instance and signed up on my browser on my laptop. I don’t think I would have found it on Voyager if I hadn’t already known about it.

        I never would have found it because I only search for the name of the instance “50501” or “world” and expect it do a partial match because it’s 2025 lmao
