Steps to reproduce the problem

  1. Create a mastodon server
  2. Create an admin account using the wizard flow during server creation

Expected behaviour

The admin account created by the wizard is usable

Actual behaviour

The admin account created by the wizard requires activation by staff, who don't yet exist, because it's a new server

Detailed description

The change to require new users to be approved by staff also impacts the user created by the wizard during server creation. This account should probably be automatically approved.

Mastodon instance

ipv6.camp

Mastodon version

v4.2.8

Browser name and version

Operating system

Duplicate of #29380

This has been fixed by #29379 and a note has been added to the release notes about a workaround (using tootctl modify --approved)
