I upgraded the instance to Lemmy 0.18.1, turned on Captcha registration, and then turned on open registration. I’m also requiring verified emails, so hopefully we don’t attract a lot of spammers… but I’m excited to see where the community goes from here.

Yay! If we’re free of bots, I expect we can rely on our community to keep bad actors in check. (“Trust but verify,” as the saying goes.)
thank you for this! i was able to join, as the other instances i was interested in were application only. you’ve helped me to get started with lemmy and i’m super excited to learn how to use it!
Welcome!
Thank you! I didn’t realize lib.lgbt was a manual-approval instance (I’m knew to Lemmy), so thanks for letting us in. I hope everything turns out well :)
