      You misinterpreted what the application form is for. I have accounts on 3 instances (lemmy.ml, beehaw.org and lemmy.one) and for each of them my application message was “came from reddit.” It’s just a way for them to reduce abusive signups; even with that, 2/3 of those instances don’t even require email verification. It literally takes 10 seconds to sign up and somehow you spent 86400 of them.

        That’s not what the form’s instructions say. I can’t read the mind of the admins to know how little I can get away with.

          Perhaps don’t advertise that you’re willing to do no more than the absolute bare minimum to try to hoodwink the admins.

            I didn’t, that’s why it took an hour to write the application form. Which is totally unacceptable for the general population.
