Unable to sign up/sign in

[Hestia-23]

502 Bad Gateway whenever a sign-in or sign-up attempt is made. The server is overloaded.

Hi Hestia! 👋

I responded on Patreon as well, but duplicating my response here for anyone who finds this on GitHub...

Sign up does actually work if you try to log in after the error screen, it just won't email you the confirmation link like it used to - but there's no actual disadvantage to that for normal site usage.

This is because we had a few people sign up then report our emails as spam, which threatened to get us banned by our hosting provider.

I'll hopefully be able to re-enable email sending after new year.

The fact that no emails are sent out is quite bad though.
It means you cannot change your password on a new account, since you need to click on the link provided by the verification email first, which never gets sent.
