Are there any instances that accept new users without requiring email verification? I live under a brutal dictatorship and I cannot afford to have my social media accounts associated with my real identity. I get that it’s an anti-spam thing but users like me are getting left in the dust in the transition from Lemmy to PieFed because of this.
Yes, it’s quite common but I don’t want to show that information as it’d make life too easy for spammers.
Anyway you can use a throwaway email service like https://sorry.idont.date/ and even if they have registration applications turned on (many don’t) and the person processing your application notices you’re using a throwaway that will just be one factor in the approve/decline decision.
