Same issue for me. Tried [email protected] as well.
Yea my bad there - fwiw I added a hot patch to the frontend to accept hackernews as a valid "email" since I couldn't update the parent comment. It should work now, but [email protected] was the email used.

Ah, the beautiful advantages of being a lone dev on a hobby project - live updates to the production code!
And I only brought prod down for 15s or so when I missed a bracket in the production server frontend package I was editing in vim! I call that a success.
Doh! You’d think I’d know my own login requirements. [email protected] is the email I used for that test account

Thank you. It's a nice UI. I know you've put a log of hours into this.
I would ditch user logins and user comments. Let OPs post a wallet or something and otherwise remain anon.
Avoid the hypernormalizing of commentary and costly moderation by forcing scrollers to comment elsewhere; cut and paste a link is not hard. Not every social media product needs the normalized set of features.
Social by default is exhausting. It’s the biggest downside to the internet and society these days. Yes we’re social creatures but we also evolved over centuries of social interaction being difficult to come by given slow travel across fast distances. We did not evolve around 24/7 consumption of human inane and repetitive first world gibberish.
