I have tried to login yesterday and today from different mobile browsers (Safari, Opera, Firefox, Brave) and I never get passed the spinning wheel of loading. On my laptop I have no problems with it. What could be the problem and how can I fix it?
EDIT: Problem solved!
There is a UI bug where if you put in the wrong password it just spins forever (no error returned to the user)..
Please try to reset your password. That solves login issues for me most of the time.
Steps to do that:
If all that fails, try again in a different browser.
Again, there are issues on the lemmy-ui GitHub page for password and wonky login behavior.
I am using the correct password, though, so it should let me log-in like it does on a non-mobile browser. I just now tried to login via Safari on my laptop and there I got in with the same password.
As long as there is some traffic then I prefer a community being reasonably small. I avoided reddit for so long because I would look at a post and then see it has 7000 comments with 6800 of them hidden at the bottom and realize there is no point in saying anything. Something becoming too big kills any interest I have in participating.
To subscribe to outside communities on the instance that you signed up on, go to the search bar and type in the name of the community @ instance with an exclamation at the beginning.
For example, if you want to follow the Jokes community on lemmy.ml, you would type into your search bar: !jokes@lemmy.ml. It will pop up and you click on it, which will take you to the community. Click on where it says sidebar and you should see the plus sign. You do this for all the communities you want to sign up for that are not apart of your instance.
