    Was already raised here by https://github.com/gaywallet ( they are : @[email protected] ?)

    it will not be resolved.

    reasons from dev. dessalines :

    commented last week •

    When a user applies to our instance and is denied, the user does not receive the denial reason.

    Getting in contact with them is the issue. I suppose we could email them the denial reason, if they provided an email. Open up an issue for that if you would. We already email them an approval notice.

    Also, if they try to login after being denied, they will get a popup red toast / error message with their denial reason.

    The end user cannot apply again if it is rejected, is this intended behavior? It seems they can’t log in either. There’s no communication to the person trying to register

    They can apply again, but with a different username. That’s very much inteneded behavior, because what you’d be asking for is essentially a chatroom / back and forth method of onboarding. This would be a massive amount of work to add to lemmy.
