Now you know why, some poor souls are drowning in a flood of mails trying to verify them one by one as peope repeatedly re require the verification email.
And everytime you send another verification request the previous one will get invalidated immediately and you need to wait until they verify the new one.
That's not been my experience. I signed up yesterday, requested a new verification email after the first one didn't arrive for ten minutes, only then read about the issues they're having and decide to wait. A few hours later a verification email arrives, that just works, and I start setting up my server. Even more hours later the second verification email arrives.
I mean, I guess it could've been the case that the first email I got was from the second verification attempt, and the second email was from the first one which was invalidated, but idk about that
