    Update: i failed miserably, i tried to search this entry https://mstdn.social/@Argyle13@xarxa.cloud/110615667838401899

    That looks like too much… stuff in the URL.

    It looks like:

    • you are on mastdn.social
    • trying to view the user: @Argyle13@xarxa.cloud
    • whose link would be something like: https://xarxa.cloud/@Argyle13
    • making them: Celia Valdeolmillos
    • the post ID would then, I assume, be: 110615667838401899

    edit: and just to say that using the link above in the way I demonstrated gets that user’s profile brought through.

        I got it to work through the Lemmy web interface before but can’t make it work now. Equally, I can’t get their profile up to follow on Mastodon.

        I don’t know the cause of that but it might be an issue with that instance or federation in general.

        edit and now it works just fine. Keep plugging away.

        Worth noting that, as I posted the link above, the profile now appears below my post.

            That’s beyond my meager understanding of things I’m afraid. I might have to chalk that up to teething troubles and try again later.

            Bear with me while I try something nope, didn’t work

            My other suggestion would be to get a Mastodon account. It’s a different beast to Lemmy and my experiments suggest it is better suited to act as a hub for your Fediverse life.

              The fediverse is still so young and complex!

              But thanks for all your help emperor :)

              At least our instances are working as expected
