Saw this with my @mtgzone username. Problem with that instance or with Connect app?

    Hi, is this still happening on the latest release (127)? Previouisly I was linking the profile button to go to your account ID and I think you and that other account share an id just on different instances. Now it should be specifically retrieving your id on your home instance.

      Actually now it’s happening again, just with my mtgzone.com account.

      Not sure if u/Kuro is how we ping here

        What version is this happening on? From the profile button?

          I just tried it again and now it’s leading to mine again. Yes, it’s the first option on the left bar.

          1.0.141

          Hi Kuro. I made an observation about this phenomenon. This only happens if I’ve changed profiles more recently than I’ve opened the app. If I want to see my profile after switching profiles, I just have to close the app and reopen. Hopefully that helps isolate which step is missing from the profile change protocol.

          Great work on the app btw!

          Now the profiles for both my mtgzone.com account and my lemmy.world account lead to errors

          Disregard, now it’s back to just the mtgzone profile showing someone else’s

    Something similar happens to me, when I login to the desktop site on my pc. I’ll briefly see a different username in the top right, before it switches to my own. It’s never been the same other username either, and so far, has also been actual users that it has shown me.

    So based on that, I don’t think it’s Connect doing this to you. But I don’t actually know.
