    I just tried to sign up for it. Installed app and signed up, it wouldn't go through. So I go to web interface and create an account there. I've waited ONE HOUR for email verification, and NOTHING. Asked to resend verification, they made me click through 5 captivas, and still NOTHING. Moving on from stoat.

    Misconfiguration with SMTP is likely or their SMTP server is under maintenance and you just tried at a poor time.

    Granted for a production environment there should be some notice to users.

    It's even simpler than that... Their SMTP server is just hosted on a homelab and has notoriously been terrible for uptime. They've had consistent issues with emails not being sent or received and that's not even the icing on the shit sundae for Revolt/Stoat.
