Starting to consider setting up a vtuber for myself to do coding streams.
Do y'all think it would be enjoyable to watch things get implemented in Rust?

@0x0f You know we have a free peertube instance you can use that federates same as your account here does, so people on the fediverse can follow you from their accounts here and on other servers?
@freemo No, it doesn't let me since my email has not been verified.
@arkay what username did you register with ill take a look now.
@freemo The same as here, maybe that is a problem? "arkay"
@arkay No that is what we expect and request.. let me look.
@freemo Yeah, the email address is correct.
@arkay It is very strange then that you didnt get a confirmation email, the email system does work (or at least has been for other users until now). I can force your email to be verified but before I do can you check you spam folder for me?
@freemo It's not in SPAM. And It's the same account I use here so at least the mastadon server was able to send mail to it. It's also receiving mail so that is not the issue either. Weird. I will try again later them.
@arkay In fact 40 minutes after you registered a different user register and was able to verify their email.. so emails should be working.
@freemo Just not to GMX then. It's a pretty big provider here in Germany.
@arkay ok i will just force verify for you then give me a second
@arkay ok i just forced your email as verified
@freemo It might be worth taking a look at the mailserver and check what is going on? I might not be the only one waiting for that mail.
@arkay the fact taht others were able to verify after you suggests it isnt on my end, but i cant be sure.. would you like me to test it by sending you a password reset email and see if it goes through?
@freemo Sure, feel free!
@freemo OK. dinner time, will let you know when I'm back.
@arkay No rush, let me know. I also gave you a 20GB quota if you fill it let me know an I can always increase.
@freemo Cool, thanks! No mail though. Maybe GMX doesn't like the host? But then Gmail probably wouldn't work either since they are veeery picky.
@arkay that is very strange indeed. The mail server is an AWS so its very unlikely it is blacklisted.
@freemo If it's an official server run by Amazon then it should be fine. I am running my own mail server so I know how difficult it is to get it recognized as not being a SPAM server :)
@freemo And thanks!
@arkay
Are you able to login?
