My opinion on Beehaw registration process. What do you all think?

eclipse@beehaw.org to Beehaw Support@beehaw.org – 179 points –

There are different opinions on Beehaw's registration process. I kind of see how some people would find it dissuasive, specially after most of us are coming from Reddit. But I still think it's very practical, at least for the time being.

Btw, this is only my opinion as a new user, I don't know any of the admins/mods. Link to my original comment.

Oh yeah, that happened to me too. It won't even tell you the reason why. When I checked, I was actually surprised somebody else had already picked the username I wanted so early lol (Hi @styx@beehaw.org, we had the same idea haha)

Accounts are created on registration so while you may not have been approved itโ€™s possible that is your account.

This it not the case, haha. I checked and they had made the account before me and had some posts/comments. So we just had the same idea, I guess
