lemmy.world is down right now and your app is showing the raw HTML that is being returned (a CloudFlare 502 page)
Okay. Earlier it had said that my account was being verified.
You might try registering at a less crowded instance - you'll have access to the same content but it will be faster and with less problems.
I am in nine other ones.
Why?
Because joining other instances is the way around here I thought.
Nah. As long as your instance is federating with all the ones that you want to interact with, there isn't much of a reason to have multiple accounts. However, if you want to see and interact with content that your main instance has blocked, you might then make another account.
You can do that, but if you don't want 20 different accounts, I would recommend signing up to just one. Lemmy and any other federated social media system should push posts from other servers to your feed depending on what servers are in region.
