Hopefully not too niche being a Japanese service, but has anyone been able to register for Misskey? They aren’t allowing registration from outside Japan (the VPN I tried didn’t work). From what I can tell, they started restricting registration a year ago, has it been closed the whole time?

Yes, they started the restriction a year ago. For a future reference, here’s the announcement about the restriction (written in Japanese): https://support.misskey.io/hc/ja/articles/7604557294607
I don’t think so. I still have the account I registered a few years ago
?
Misskey is also a federated and decentralized platform like Lemmy. There are a bunch of other instances of Misskey other than the one in japan.

I can’t help with “now” but it definitely wasn’t locked the whole time. I used to have an account on Misskey.io without any issues or need for VPN (that was before they changed the registration rules though).
