@christin@lsbt.me That does mean people have to use the web client to register an account, right?
So someone can't, for example, download the Mastodon mobile app, having never had an account before, fire it up and say "Create Account"? That won't work if they then pick your server?
Note: I don't know if this is actually possible via the Mastodon mobile app, since I don't use it. But I would imagine they would want to make something like that available. :-)

@GrahamDowns@mastodon.africa That's correct. If any app, for example a mobile app provides the ability to register a new account, this wouldn't work anymore. The normal web registration still works. This should be communicated, maybe in the instance description. :-)
