I hate to be this person, but LBRY people were not the friendliest to me when I was asking them a few questions. I believe their words were
"you really need to know some basic coding in order to use the beta, you should come back when its open to the public - I don't think this is for you"
and this was AFTER I had blasted a referral link to the masses on my twitter and gotten them at least 10 signups.
Safe to say I'm bitter
Hello this is probably due to the mass influx of newcomers to the slack and community. Note that this is still closed beta, which is meant for developers who can participate and contribute to the project, rather than babysitting and helping out with how to code.
There are questions that get asked so many times a day so i guess people are fed up with it(there are more than 5k users on Slack, one of the biggest of all Crypto).
