Hi lemmy.world! New to the fediverse, trying to create lemmy account but I just keep getting a spinning arrow and no sign up confirmation. Any thoughts?

Edit: I’m posting from kbin, I was able to create an account here. I’ve tried lemmy on two different browsers on mobile iOS, wondering if it’s just a glitch due to an influx of users
Edit 2: I tried creating a login on desktop and that worked! Leaving this post up so others can see in case they have the same issue :). Happy Reddit migration!
Well, you posted and have a username so you must have done something right. Welcome!
Looks like they're posting from kbin.
Hey can you tell me how to reply to comments aswell?
Think that’s coming in an update

Thanks! I’m actually posting from kbin not lemmy, but honestly I guess that’s what’s really cool here, we can connect from different platforms all the same
Be sure you validate your email address!

Thanks! Just did, desktop gave me that option, mobile wasn’t working. All good now
It's possible it timed out. Try just logging in on the instance with the username and password you tried to create. I had that happen.
EDIT: If you tried to make the same username as your kbin on lemmy.world, it doesn't look like the account exists by going to the /u/.
It could be a few things.

Yesterday the administrators tried to update the server, something got wrong and they rolled the update back but now this is a bit botched. When I reply, the spinner also does not go away but the content was posted. I guess they just need a bit of time to figure that out.
Wow I do remember the time of BBS’s, my older brother was in there from the beginning and it was exciting to watch and explore from there. This does feel like that, just without the deafening dial up noises
