the lemmy system

ctkatz@lemmy.ml to No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world – 34 points –

I've actually got 2 questions, one about l.w and one about lemmy in general.

  1. I signed up yesterday and got an email to confirm my address but it's not working. I've used the user I created, my email, and the user that was in my email and it's not working. is it me or is it the server here at issue?

  2. I've also got a mastodon account. how do I create a post on any sub straight from there and not through a lemmy instance?

Did it show an error when you tried to confirm your email?

it said incorrect login credentials when trying to log in.

the link in the email takes me nowhere but a blank page.

Try clearing the browser. It may have a cookie that needs refreshed.

I don't know enough about the lemmy server to say whether this is a regular issue. I'd just retry creating a user with the same email.
