I also had the same issue on my first login (the email was verified, btw). The login button just went spinning and nothing happens. Trying the login on Jerboa gave me invalid credentials (it wasn't a mistype, because I used a password manager).
The workaround I did was to do a password reset and use a simpler one (was 50+ chars with special chars on, then changed to 32 chars and no special chars).
Not sure if what fixed was the reset itself, or the new password.
After this, the login went smooth on both the website and the app.
EDIT: And when posting this, the post submit button also kept spinning (the more than 200+ chars issue). But trying in a new tab, the message was actually sent.
And some minute later, on the old tab the message was sent, but the OP post changed from the "improvements and issues" to "The inability to post multiple pictures is holding Lemmy back.", but the comments below mine where for the "improvements and issues", while the comment above where to the other thread.
I think there is an issue with long passwords, I'll have to search their Github.
Submitting issue is known, it will take 30 seconds at least but the post is available immediately. That is being looked into.
The issue with posts changing and other strange behaviour I think is an issue with the websockets they use. In 0.18 they will replace websockets entirely so I hope that will solve many issues..
I've been trying to sign up for an account for a few days now and always get stuck on the spinning button. My password isn't overly complex as far as I can tell. I've tried multiple browsers and devices and can't create an account. I even left it running over night and it was still spinning in the morning.
Have you tried to go to login page, fill in with your email only and click on forget password? If this work, maybe there's also some issue not related with the password complexity
EDIT: (I mean, if you at least got the email verification)
Hey, it worked! I guess I missed the verification mail going to my junk folder. Thanks!
