I seem to be having an issue logging in to Beehaw from a browser. I've tried Firefox and Chrome on Android and Windows, and Safari on an ipad. I either get a spinning circle or no change on the login button. I've tried disabling all of my extensions, but it doesn't make a difference.

I'm able to access it through Jerboa, but Jerboa's still pretty buggy for me.

Has anyone else run into this? Could this just be an issue with the influx of new users?

Same issue here, can't log in, can't register, infinite spinning on any browser.

So, I’m only like three hours old on the Lemmy platform, I’m not sure if it is something I am doing wrong but I also cannot login to Beehaw or Lemmy.ml

@somethingclever same thing when trying to register (I think at least?) just a spinning button and no real action in the network tab of the browser except getting some svgs

@somethingclever this is all I get after trying to register:

Same, but it's selective.

I can access BH on:

Internet Explorer (desktop)
Jerboa (mobile)
Firefox (laptop)

I can't access on:

Chrome (mobile)
Firefox (desktop)
Actual Edge application (desktop) - this one's weird and idk why i can access using IE but not Edge

All come down to spinning wheel.

What browser are you running? If Firefox, what addons do you have that may be stopping network traffic such as U-Block Origin, PrivacyBadger, Noscript, etc...

[–] somethingclever 2 points 1 year ago

My main browser is Firefox, but I've tried it on a bunch. Disabling all of my addons hasn't worked, and I tried it with a fresh Chrome install and the stock Edge browser in Win 10.

I've run into issues logging in with Firefox, I get the same infinite spinning circle you describe. I've found that Brave on desktop to be pretty smooth sailing for browsing beehaw so I would suggest giving that a go.

[–] somethingclever 2 points 1 year ago

I just tried it, and unfortunately it doesn't work either. I tried Edge as well; same thing.

@somethingclever what are you supposed to get when trying to sign up? Should there be anything more than the spinning button or is that just the sign that the application is awaiting approval?

[–] somethingclever 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

This isn't while signing up, just logging in with an existing account. I can't remember exactly what happens when registering, but I'm pretty sure I got a page saying that the request needs to be approved and some other instructions.

[–] northernlightmountain@mstdn.social 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

@somethingclever then signing up seems to get stuck on the same issue.

I wasn't sure if it was just my comment not getting approved but I've tried for a few days now and never get anything besides the spinning button. 😕

[–] northernlightmountain@mstdn.social 1 points 1 year ago

@somethingclever for what it's worth I've now tries signing up with Edge, Chrome, Firefox and Brave on Windows as well as Firefox, Edge and Brave on Android. Same situation all over. Just the spinning icon on the button and no hints of anything happening.

Same issue here, just with another instance. I'm also using Jerboa to access anything.

Edit: For me the issue was a blank space after my username. I deleted it and then it worked for me.

[–] UnderlyingLogic 1 points 1 year ago

I'm having the same issue. I'm only able to access through Jerboa, not the website on desktop or mobile.
