Y’all I want to find people in the Black Twitter instance (is that the right word) but every time I try, Mastodon tells me I have to log in again and then doesn’t accept my login. Help!

@austinchanning Yeah, it's very confusing and frustrating to learn. If you're seeing something like the screenshot below, the log in only works if you have an account on THAT instance. You'll usually want to click the "Copy" button in the bottom right, come back to your mastodon, paste it in the search bar, THEN you can interact with that account (follow, boost, fave, etc.) 😩

@alex Some servers have a cool button that pops up another window on your own instance to take action on, I presume it's some kind of modification or pre-release feature; Can't remember where I've seen it but hopefully it becomes more widespread!
