It seems that a lot of new people have learned about these platforms from a popular post on Reddit. We currently see 78 notifications (and counting) and a pile of applications on piefed.ca

I am pinning this thread on both platforms for new users to pop in to and ask questions. Please give them a warm welcome!

    Thank you for this. This is exactly what I’ve done and I run into a connection error notice. Turned off wifi and tried again, still not working.

      Can you try again now? I think there are two potential causes:

      • Our server is being overloaded with new people
      • Around 15 minutes ago, we upgraded the server specs to handle the increased load, and so it might have been down right as you were trying it

        I just reinstalled Voyager and tried it all again and the same error is occurring.

        I will take a break for now and try again later on. I love how much help I’ve received and hopefully my issue can be resolved and help others in the future.
