To the Databricks Team (or whoever is pretending to care),
Let me get this straight. You offer a "Community Edition" to supposedly help people learn, right? Well, congratulations, you've created the most frustrating, useless signup process I've ever seen. It's a masterpiece of incompetence.
I'm trapped in your ridiculous login loop. It's like a hamster wheel of digital doom:
Verify email.
Click link.
Enter email (again!).
Get code.
Enter code.
and back to the start?
I've tried EVERYTHING a reasonable person would try:
Different browsers (Edge, Chrome, even incognito)
contacted your "support" email.
Used different email accounts (because maybe my email is the problem?)
Nothing. Works. Your. System. Is. Broken.
But the real kicker? The silence. The absolute, breathtaking lack of support. I followed @Walter_C's advice and emailed databricks-community@databricks.com. *crickets* The sound of no one caring.

Is this some kind of social experiment? Are you testing how long people will bang their heads against a wall before giving up? Because I've just reached my limit.
You're actively driving away potential users. You're making a mockery of the word "community." This isn't a Community Edition; it's a Community Rejection.
So, thanks, Databricks. Thanks for wasting my time. Thanks for the non-existent support. Thanks for making me question my sanity.
Maybe spend less time on fancy marketing and more time on, I don't know, making your product actually work? Just a thought.
