Hi,
I’ve moved over to piefed.social from lemmy not too long ago and tried to link my piefed.social account in Voayger, but all I get is a notification at the top of my screen saying “Connection error, please try again.”.
I was actually able to create and link a piefed.world account and link it in Voyager. So I’m not sure why it doesn’t want to work with the .social account.
Does anyone have a fix for this ?


While I do not have voyager on the phone, trying it out on the web, it seems like voyager does not really have custom error messages for errors returned by the Piefed API (or at least in my case)
I got a 400 status code with
incorrect_loginerror message despite seeing a “Connection error, please try again.”. It’s possible that it is something similar.If you are also using it on the desktop, try checking the network logs.
So i’m getting a status code 200 with a response method of OPTIONS. But two of the response headers are “server: cloudflare” and “x-frame-options: DENY”. Am I correct to believe that I’m being blocked by Cloudflare ?
Nope. You wouldn’t see a 200 status code if Cloudflare blocked the request.
You should look for a request with method POST.
Oh ok sorry about that --’ I am actually also getting an
incorrect_loginerror message as well. Which is weird because I am using a password manager and can connect just fine to piefed (obviously). Were you able to connect in your case ?I don’t really have a Piefed account, so I just typed in random stuff to see if my prediction was correct.
You should check the sent data to see if the password or username you typed in are really sent the way you typed them in (as rimu pointed out, it could be that there are some spaces around the username or the password for whatever reason).
While not something I encounter alot, sometimes using the autofill function of my password manager (Bitwarden) somehow causes the password to not be accepted by the server. Try manually copying and pasting the credentials. If nothing works, I guess open a bug report at voyager repo.
I doubt this has to do with Piefed’s API.
