verification emails are usually sent immediately. if there are delays you should check your junk folder, and if it's not there it probably won't arrive anymore. depending on the instance you signed up on there may be alternative methods to reach out to the instance admins about this. note that private messages from mastodon to lemmy do not work unfortunately.

you may have broken your language settings? check in your account settings. the posts are all tagged as English, you'll want to have at least English and undefined languages selected

fwiw, for Sync users the update to 0.19.5 is not that great, as @ljdawson@lemmy.world still hasn't updated Sync to use the updated APIs for marking posts as read :(

also adding my vote for the second one

this is a lemm.ee limitation, not a Lemmy limitation, so this is the wrong community.

if you look at the instance sidebar at https://lemm.ee/ you can see that it's 4 weeks.

Retaining old content has value

this 100%. this is exactly why i wouldn't recommend any communities to be removed if there is still content in there, worst case just lock it.

cleaning up communities doesn't make lemmy more active either. it may help to make active communities stand out more against inactive ones though.

it does, but only if you use the autocomplete feature. it's also a bit delayed without any indicator that it's loading.

if you type @gedal and wait a moment it'll load @gedaliyah@lemmy.world to be selected:

if you want to get fancy
you can even use undocumented tables

The "fediverse link" on a post always points to the instance of the person who posted it, not the community instance. When posting from a lemmy.world account this means the fedilink is always the lemmy.world post link.

It is only shown for content coming from remote instances in Lemmy UI 0.19.3, although a later version changed that to always show.

this is by design. actor ids (unique identifier for accounts) should not be reused due to undefined behavior for how other instances will deal with that.

if you want to have a more technical explanation, https://socialhub.activitypub.rocks/t/reuse-of-identity-channel-addresses-revocation-reissue-of-keys/2888 does a decent job at explaining some of the issues with this.

it should be noted that these bans are community bans, not instance bans. your title makes it look like people are getting instance banned from lemmy.world, while the examples you've shown are about community bans.

if i'm not mistaken, several/most of the lemmy.ml bans/ban complaints have been about instance bans, which affect all communities on the instance.
