I don’t know about login, because I was unable to create an account. It was stuck, not doing anything with just the spinner on the submit button forever. Tried disabling adblocks, using different browsers and the same effect always persisted. I gave up on signing up to the instance
It does for me in one browser (mobile Firefox), but weirdly only in a regular tab - an incognito tab works fine. No idea what that would be. Every other browser and platform works okay. It’s not just Lemmy.world either, it’s the same on other instances.
You have to clear the cookies and site data. Use the padlock symbol (if you are in mobile) in the URL field and choose clear the cookies and site data. Login again and you should be good.
That would make sense, but it still doesn’t work even after doing that.
Try clearing the Firefox cache maybe…
I did. I cleared all website data and all cache, history etc and tried a few minutes ago. Still hangs on the busy spinner, but in incognito, signs in instantly.
Thats really weird. Do you have any add-on that runs in normal but not in incognito?
The only explanation I could imagine is some firefox bug. Probably it’s throwing a JS error.
Just tried it in Firefox mobile right now and its working fine. There should be another reason.
on iOS or Android? iOS for me.
Android here. Maybe thats why.
I’m getting it in every browser and it’s only with lemmy. Firefox. just installed brave it’s doing it there too. Chrome was already logged in so I’m not logging out to find out and get completely frozen out. Also noticed that sometimes I have to reset the page manually as it’ll get stuck on refresh. Only happens on lemmy. No other site I’m on is having this issue so I am highly doubting it’s my browsers now.
There is a banner that says Clear Your Browser Cache if you’re having any issues… so that should be your first port of call.
Nope. That did not work.
It doesn’t work for me either, with F-droid Fennec. Clearing cache/cookies/history/everything does not help, so don’t suggest that. I installed Jerboa because of this. I have no other way to log in from my phone. Well ok, maybe with Chrome, but that is a bridge too far.
How are you trying to login? I know Jerboa is broken right now.
Firefox and brave. And I’ve tried incognito/private too. Same deal
Interesting. Have you tried using a different WiFi/data?
