I joined when registrations were open and volume was still low overall. I couldn't sign up on Beehaw or shitjustworks for some reason but was able to get an account here. Since then, lots of instances have put up barriers (captcha, manual approval, etc) to keep the servers running, reduce bots, and to maintain a sense of order and identity. I imagine a lot of users were turned away and turned off during that time.
