    Give em time. I signed up on pawbs.social but it took em about 12-24 hours to verify me. I’d expect it to take a bit longer since beehaw is bigger.

      I think this is related to my initial signup getting denied and no email notifications being sent out in that scenario. There is a post on beehaw looking for devs to have a look at the code to figure out the issue, but based on what I read in GitHub, it sounds like if an admin denies a signup, the email doesn’t get sent, and then the user is in a weird locked state where they can’t signup again, and the admins can’t modify the user.

        more or less yeah. by lemmy’s current design, if we deny you you’d never know unless we manually scraped your email and manually sent you a denial email, and emails aren’t mandatory so for some people that’s not even a hypothetical option

          Makes sense. I wonder how I can reset my password though? The link to reset doesn’t work in any browsers for me. Was my user perhaps banned? Would be slashzero@beehaw.org

          Thanks!
