I've been curious about trying out mbin, and this seems like a good instance to do it on. So I absolutely like option 2 the best.

That said, I tried to sign up earlier today, and never received the registration email. Tried to sign up with an old Gmail account. Might be worth looking into. :)

Sorry about that, and thanks for letting me know. I had no idea the email system was down. I'll probably try to look into it after the migration to Mbin. I've gone ahead and manually verified each user from the past week, so you should be able to sign in now.

Ok, I was able to figure out what was wrong. All registration and password reset emails should be working now.

So the migration to mbin is done or just wanted to fix that first anyways? ^^

[–] jwr1@kbin.earth 1 points 6 months ago (1 children)

No, we haven't migrated yet. I just decided to fix that first.

[–] Varen@kbin.social 1 points 6 months ago (2 children)

Ok. I think Im gonna test it out aswell once migration is done

[–] jwr1@kbin.earth 1 points 6 months ago

Sounds good! Migration probably won't happen today, but maybe tomorrow or the day after if we get lucky. Unfortunately, I ran into a problem while trying to set up Mbin due to one of the mbin/kbin dependencies suddenly disappearing out of the blue (see here).

The migration to Mbin is complete! Let me know if you run into any issues.

Awesome! Will look to register tonight or tomorrow, when I find the time. Thanks for letting me know :)
