Not sure if this was a problem but when trying to register to certain instances on my phone (Chrome iOS) the ball would spin forever. When doing it on my desktop it was no problem.
I think lemmy.ml is just receiving a huge amount of traffic all of a sudden. Even just a couple percent of all redditors suddenly making an account on Lemmy servers will give their comparatively smaller servers the beating of a lifetime.
I had a similar experience signing up to lemmy.world. I switched to a different password and was able to sign up. However, one of the commenters says that registration at lemmy.ml is closed.

Have you checked if a user with the same name already exists? Currently it is bugged and doesn't show an error message.

I had to join at lemmy.click
Both .nl and .world were not working for me.

I don't think there is a lemmy.nl. But if you're looking for a Dutch server, you can try feddit.nl

Heh, the op was somehow under "hot" for me, might have to switch to sorting by new or top-day

I found the issue being with my password managers autofill function. When I pastdd the password myself instead of using autofill it worked.
