[bug] Unable to follow or search accounts *@a.gup.pe #595

carbontwelve · 2022-05-23T10:02:53Z

a.gup.pe appears to be a special instance source code; I am able to follow the "accounts" there from Mastodon, with the accounts having a visual "group" tag in the mastodon web app much like accounts flagged as bots do:

I assume this is a new Mastodon feature as people using Misskey have reported being unable to follow accounts @a.gup.pe either.

There is an open issue on the gup.pe repository immers-space/guppe#48 where Misskey and Pleroma users have reported the same experience.

The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:

We should be able to work with the Group actor type, we have specific logic allowing that. I'll have a look at it :) Thanks for opening this.

Just adding a note for myself:

curl -H 'accept: application/activity+json' https://a.gup.pe/u/askfedi_de

gives:

Any idea if that could be fixed?
I installed my own GotoSocial Instacne couple of days ago and i think it is very good for Alpha Software but it would be great if it would be possible to follow this group accounts.

I think that wont get fixed until somebody is willing to pay for it:

I'm going to close this, since there's not really anything we can/should do from our side.

As @bjoerns1983 said, Guppe won't fix this unless they get paid for their time. This is fair enough, but not something we can do anything about.

For further commentary on this issue, better follow up on the Guppe repo instead of here: immers-space/guppe#90

pfefferle · 2023-07-31T12:26:26Z

@tsmethurst I think the issue of @jeherve (#595 (comment)) is something different. It is an issue with the WordPress plugin and GoToSocial and we are willing to change things! It seems to/might be an issue with . in the username!?!

Should we create a new/separate issue for that?

Yes please!
