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 ?

    No problem, don’t worry about it. Probably an error on my end since other people don’t seem to have reported the same problem.
    It’s just so weird that I connect to the world instance but not the social one 😱

      Sorry if this is too basic but have you deleted the cache and force-closed the app before trying again? Or even the storage, if you don’t have any other accounts on it to worry about.

      If you don’t know what all that means, then I suggest uninstalling the app (if you don’t have any other accounts on it), rebooting your phone, and then reinstalling the app to try again. It’s overkill, but should offer the best chance of working unless somehow that connection is being blocked by something strange and more specific to you.

        I just did, tried reinstalling the app after clearing storage and cache and rebooting (my settings 😭). Tried in the web app, in another browser. Tried with, and without a VPN. It’s still a no-go ¯\_ (ツ)_/¯

        I think I might just migrate to piefed.world 🤔

            Actually just tried in Blorp, and it does work…
            I had wanted to tried earlier but for some reason blorp wasn’t loading anything.
            But now it does work and I can login to piefed.social on it.
            Which still begs the question as to why does Voyager allow me to connect to piefed.world but not piefed.social.
