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?

      it said incorrect login credentials when trying to log in.

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

        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.

    1. Many different potential things, your application question might be in review, your browser might need to clear cache, your email verification didn’t work yet or other things.
    2. To post to Lemmy from Mastodon, you just have to mention the community name somewhere in your Mastodon post. For example @nostupidquestions@lemmy.world

    Bear in mind, the first line becomes the title of post and the rest is in the body, so it’s recommended to add the mention later.
