Ok so I think I figured out the problem with me not being able to follow certain accts. The ones I had trouble with changed their domain so I couldn't follow them at the domain name they followed me from.

I went to each of their profiles and saw their new domain name and under that new domain name I am following them.

It's kind of confusing that it didn't just have a msg telling me they changed domains and that I'm following the new domain but now I know.

@Mastodon there are 2 specific followers of mine that every time I try to follow back it says this action is not allowed.

Why???

Every day I have tried to follow them but y'all won't let me.

It makes zero sense. Can you help me out?

@nibble4bits I keep trying to follow you back but get an error message. It's happening with other accts I'm trying to follow back but only certain ones.

Look at the error msg close to the bottom of the screenshot I attached

I'll keep trying to follow back.

@jake_snowflake when I try to follow you back I get an error message, you'll see it on the attached screenshot.

It is happening with other accts I try to follow too.

I don't know why it won't let me follow you, I tried yesterday too. I'll keep trying.

I'm trying to follow everyone back but after I followed back 4 people it says this action is not allowed.

Has anyone else encountered this or know why?
