Bots of this type have appeared recently, and people are asking if it’s okay to use them. I’m not sure about this either, so I think it would make sense to ask users.
These bots follow some subreddits on Reddit and automatically post it to Lemmy when a post is created there.
I’ve seen an example site for it: lemmit.online. This instance is dedicated solely to mirroring Reddit posts to the Lemmy instance.
Maybe instead of mirroring to a community on Lemmy NSFW, we can subscribe to lemmit.online via Lemmy NSFW. This way we could have kept Lemmy NSFW free of bots. Currently, even if accepted, I believe it should be done under admin control to prevent duplicates.
Here is the poll: https://strawpoll.com/polls/PbZqRw82byN
I’m open to suggestions.
I’m trying to make an account on this instance, been trying for days now but it never works, has anyone been able to create an account? It just forever spins after pressing sign up. I’ve tried on multiple devices and browsers, same deal.
There should be a captcha. Check is it there. Also filling by password manager is not working for me. Try writing by hand. Be sure your password is strong enough also.
There could be many errors. We can’t know because Lemmy server doesn’t returns those. Hopefully these errors will be fixed in new version.
captcha was always done, password is strong too
Passwort manager worked after the third try. But I noticed that not ticking the show nsfw worked.
You can change it later
Good to know it worked for you. Welcome!
I had some issues initially on mobile, try on desktop, or hitting the hamburger menu in the top right, and change to desktop mode
tried both mobile and desktop and both chrome and firefox
strange, have you tried leaving show nsfw unchecked, and enabling it in settings after ?
