Have you created an Apple account in the last few hours? Are they still struggling with the Cloudflare outage? (discuss.tchncs.de)

I need to create an Apple account since yesterday. At first I got the error message "Your account cannot be created at this time." right away. So I waited until the Cloudflare outage was over.

After that, I could submit the request, received codes via email and text message. But when I enter the code from the text message, the error message "Your account cannot be created at this time." appears again.

The service "Apple Account" is marked green on Apple's status page. The email address and phone number are working, as they both received the codes.

When Apple doesn’t like something about your configuration they’ll spit out arbitrary errors like that.

I got an error like that at work when someone was trying to do forgot password. Turns out you can’t reset your password in settings or safari if another user account is signed into find my Mac. Dumbest fucking limitation. It worked in chrome I think.
