Manton, I can't follow you!

@[email protected] I can't seem to follow your account!

I haven't looked in-depth into it, but it seems at first glance I'm unable to resolve your account via webfinger:

Manton Reece - Not Found

@julian @manton you're missing `acct:` in the resource there.

julian

@[email protected] ah, there it is.

Interesting, I wonder why I can't follow @[email protected] then... might be the follow needs to be accepted?

@julian @manton seemed to work fine for me from Mastodon.

julian

@[email protected] @[email protected] cool, must be on my end then!

Why am I not surprised lol.

@julian @thisismissem Might be my bug too. Follows are approved automatically, although there can be a small delay before that happens. Let me know if I can help troubleshoot.

julian

@[email protected] sure, although I'm not sure how helpful it will be!

I get this html back (I excised all the boilerplate):

<p>Error while processing the request. Please try again or email <a href="mailto:[email protected]">[email protected]</a>. Check <a href="https://news.micro.blog/">the news blog</a> for updates.</p>

@[email protected] oh, also the Follow was sent to https://micro.blog/activitypub/shared/inbox, which I think is right...

Does micro.blog even have Webfinger implemented?

It isn't part of the ActivityPub standard after all, and it was added by Mastodon which seems to rely on it.
