Any idea why I can't register to this instance from the webui?
I have been trying with different nicknames but it just get stuck when registering, there is no error message or anything. Thx in advice.
when the name is already in use it gets stuck currently.
might apply to other error cases as well.
you can check if a name is used by visiting https://lemmynsfw.com/u/NICKHERE
Might be because the server load of new users is too heavy right now. I'm still learning the fediverse, but I do know that it somewhat doesn't matter what instance you register with as long as the other instance is federated with the one you registered in you'll be able to access and see all posts.
Sorry for the long sentence, but hopefully that helps. Here is a link to how the fediverse works on a wiki: https://joinfediverse.wiki/Main_Page
