    By “or anything” do you mean no captcha or application as well? Because lemmy.ml and reddthat.com both make use of those.

    Having totally open sign-ups is risky, as most instances learned the hard way last summer.

    Unfortunately spammers and bots ruined that for a lot of people. I used to allow that but spammers created 10,000 accounts in a few minutes

      Their method of stopping spam is to just manually review every new account. Make their mods lives a little better by putting something funny in the “why do you want to join” message. They don’t actually care why you’re joining they just want to know you’re not a bot.
