Description

You get redirected to the "Connected account" tab, if you click on "Email" again, you'll see the actual error.

Looks like the hash part of the URL no longer changes the tab https://app.readthedocs.org/accounts/signup/#/email.

Research direction

Reproduce the problem at the signup URL by selecting Email and submitting an existing email or username. Inspect the Email tab and URL hash handling; done means the error is shown immediately while the Email tab remains selected instead of switching to Connected account.
