https://lemmus.org/signup works for me, are you on a VPN or something?
How does the join-lemmy.org site determine which instance to send users to?
It seems to come from this code, which could probably use some additional instances added to the list
I am actually yeah. Maybe I'll suddenly transport myself to a different country and see if that solves it.
suggestion: add [SOLVED] to your post's title
Done. Although it does expose a bigger issue that the site can point to instances that can be unreachable by certain users. Maybe the whitelist shouldn't contain any instances that have any wide range blocks.
I should clarify - CTA == Call To Action - a primary button that is used to drive users through a journey we want to take them down.
I can't help diagnose what went down on your end, but I followed your link and then followed the link at join lemmy and they both work for me:
This is what I'm seeing...
Ok - so when I switch to a UK VPN server, it works, but when I'm on an Ireland server, it doesn't. So they must have a block on the specific IP for the Irish server I was using or just flat out blocking Ireland.
Classic programming meme, we love it. Dunno what is going on with that instance or how it is chosen, sorry!
I just spoke with the admin, they're blocking VPNs (guessing via a rule within Cloudfront).
Ah - Thank you for the reminder to turn mine back on!
