Is Lemmy.ca taking any new users?

I got an email that my account was approved a few days ago but I haven't been able to log in. It looks like more people are joining though so I wasn't sure if it was just me.

My understanding is that it doesn’t matter all that much which server you join (other than for the local rules on the server of course) because lemmy is federated, i.e. it is an email-like system where you can interact with other servers freely. I may be completely wrong though. I am a new user.
- Yes I think I figured out how to post on another server, but my understanding was that to make a community I need to have an account on that server, so I was trying to make an account on there as well
  
  The other possibility is to message a user on lemmy.ca and ask them to make the community for you and then add you as a mod (and optionally remove themselves after verifying that stuck).
  
  Any reason you don't want to create a community on your server, sh.itjust.works seems well managed from the outside.
  
  No specific reason really, I just want the option for it afterwards :)
