...unfortunately this'll take awhile. it's still about 4,780 as of writing. but that's down probably 1,000 from its peak! we finally have a hacky system to handle denials, so that's really helping here.

we also missed a bunch of cool people, who we're approving too.

we can now, finally, say that if you register, your judgement (whether approve/deny) should come down within 24-48 hours, although the deny email might take longer than that depending on circumstances.

If its not too nosy to ask: What do most denied requests look like? Like, did they not answer the question or were they being dicks?

[–] alyaza@beehaw.org 7 points 1 year ago

mostly the first, very occasionally the second; we ask them to reapply. unfortunately now we have a whole other problem which precludes us from currently sending any emails, so uh lol
