There's now a feedback loop for rejected accounts.
(burggit.moe)
For the longest time, Lemmy had no feedback loop for accounts which had been rejected, you got an infinite loading screen and that's it. No easy to see explanation for why your login wasn't accepted. If you are denied, now you will finally see the reason why in the login page in the form of an error toast in the bottom left corner. Such as the following example I did on a test account.
If we haven't yet gotten to your application, it will say something along the lines of "could not find account, does not exist" or something like that.
Oh, is that why I've seen people complain about infinite loading screens on reddit? They were just denied from wherever they applied to? Neat.
I didn't know those little pop-up messages were called toasts, how cute. ๐ฅ
I thought it was an error toast ๐, not an error toast ๐ฅ
oh you know what they do pop up like toast out of a toaster!
I like them being the ๐ฅ kind of toast way better haha, I don't think I'll be able to see them as ๐ again
