I think I got to the root of what was causing this. If anyone is still having issues signing up, please comment here.

    @[email protected] @[email protected] Heads up that I just got a support message from the email provider I use saying that it has been suspended for suspected spamming.

    This happened several months ago, and I added stronger IP-based rate limits which apparently fixed it. Probably spammers or people doing a DDoS-type attack (spamming signup requests for emails in big public email lists) for whatever reason. I’ve added more guards, which will hopefully fix it, but it may be a few days before they allow sending signup emails again 🫠 So we may get a bunch of posts on Reddit and Lemmy about not being able to sign up - just letting y’all know

      @perchance

      since I still haven’t been approved for a lemy account to be able to create new posts/questions, I’m just gonna reply to this:

      what’s up with the RSS feeds?
      i have a feed with a frequency set to every half hour (48) and none of my feed readers have received anything from in in almost 24 hours.

      i know its hosted by glitch, which likes to just…put things to sleep. but shouldn’t the frequency setting make it ping and wake up?

      Oooooh, unfortunate. Yeah I’ll keep an ear out and just let people know to try again in a few days.
