Hey I just tried to create an account on 5 different instances and the circle keeps spinning, finally found a random not-so-populated instance and this post is to test how the fediverse work. Please reply if you can see this. Also: fuck spez
Just a note to spread the word: Lemmy (for some reason) doesn’t have a feature that simply says “This instance has signups disabled.” It will still show you the signup page, and it will spin infinitely, but it will never actually go through if the signups are disabled.
You can check your instance here to see if signups are actually allowed:

Also, welcome to the Fediverse :)
I’m talking from my own self hosted instance, commenting on something you posted on lemmy.ml, from your account on reddthat.com. It’s pretty amazing!
The thing is with all your connections being remote you’ll never see any edits.
Edit: here’s proof.
Proof.
You’re in!

Fuuuuuck Spez, my dude/ette

Welcome to the fed, lad. Have a cookie. 🍪
Hello from lemmy.fmhy.ml I think you’ll find Lemmy to be a bit calmer and close knit than reddit.
You did it! Welcome. Obligatory fuck spez.

Ah nice, didn’t realise there was a UK feddit. Should have tried!
It feels weird to say welcome. I literally just got in recently as well.
Now that I think of it, when I get to a real life party and someone arrives at the same time, I also say “welcome” with pride and confidence as if I’m the host just to be friendly and ease any tension.
Hello from lemmy.ko4abp.com!
