    Add the fact that lemmy.ml and others were/still are doing applications for sign up instead of an automated system. I applied twice for a .ml account and never got a single response, not even a denial or “your application is being processed”. I have no idea if my application was ever even seen.

    On the other hand, I signed up to lemmy.world and kbin.social in minutes and have been using them ever since.

      I was tempted to join .ml but the banner at the top of the application form was discouraging. Went to .world and here we are.

        Yeah, it felt a lot like “you need to prove you’re worthy” more than just proving you’re not a bot.
