I tried signing up for a pixelfed account. I picked pixelfed.global. the last step of registering is they send you an email. You click the confirm, and your account becomes active.

Except I never got the email. I thought "Maybe I typed the wrong email?"

But no. My email and username was free to register the first time, but now it says that email and username aren't available.

So I'm registered, but can't log in because that username doesn't exist. I can't register that name, because it's now taken.

So I'm in limbo of registration process....but now I can't even figure out how to email the admins.

What do I do now?

Their email is admin@bararoligt.nu probably the best place to start.

Check your spam folder. I don't know that I've ever not received an email I was supposed to have received and found that the spam folder was actually the issue. But it's still a good idea to check it in case that's the whole issue.

had exactly the same issue... can you maybe tell them to re-send the verificatiin email(s) for me, too?
