I really agree with you here.
The reddit exodus happened so fast that people didn’t think through or have time to learn how to scale in the fediverse.
Subreddits should equal instances.
Common threads/stickies within subreddits should equal communities within instances.
Subreddits should not equal communities.
I had this issue and the cause was the email server. If you’re using smtp you’ll have to make sure your vps opens port 25.
However you can also just register without an email and it should work
Yeah maybe, i’ve had my account for a few years but who knows.
If i decide do use email i’ll just make an smtp mail server on my homelab
Yeah, I tried and failed. They denied it and told me to use SES lol.
Whatever haha
Were you able to get AWS to open port 25 for smtp support?
Thanks for putting this together!
I’m the dev that is working on Lemmynade (resurrected from lemmur)
Things are getting pretty solid. I’m using it as my main without issues right now. Even on v0.18.x instances.
Try out the latest release here:

F-Droid, Play store, and iOS should be here next week!
