can some big-brained pleroma guy please explain to me why, when i try to view some accounts from Husky, it just redirects me to a completely random post?
haven't really had that problem on bae.st, maybe it has to do with the inst?
is it even normal???

@a1ba @rin @shy typing the full handle in post form and looking at preview still best way to do it :vanShrug:

@rin case in point: i click on @ marmar22, it "performs a lookup" then links me to a completely random post.

@shy @rin as far as I remember, when it does "perform a lookup", it actually starts a search and picks the first thing it returns.
And search in Pleroma can always return what you're looking for, always return nothing, even if it exists, or redirect to something random if it just can't find anything.
I logged into my account on SPW to try putting marmar22's profile URL in the search bar and got the same random post. Looking it up on my instance, it returned the user first.

@rin it also never happens if i open the profile of the poster itself. also sometimes it doesn't bug out and if someone i follow posts a followers-only reply to a followers-only post of a person i don't follow, and i try to open the tagged person's profile, it opens as normal. sometimes it doesn't, though, which is what makes me wonder if this is really a bug or a feature.

@rin only happens when i click on an account mentioned in the post. for example if someone tags @ foo @ bar.xyz, it shortens to "@ foo" (don't mind the spaces i just don't want to tag someone on accident), and if i click on @ foo, it just redirects me to a completely random post (really random, sometimes it links to hellthreads, sometimes to singular posts from bots, etc.).
from my observations, it mostly bugs out like this if the reply is to a followers-only post in a thread, and the post itself is fully public. maybe that explains it?

@shy I primarily use husky to post and never got this issue. does it happen when you click on a mention, or a profile from a post/likes/reposts/search?

@hj @rin @shy yeah, and it works in Husky that way too.
But I guess what happened here is that marmar22's account didn't fetched on SPW for some reason. If I open this post on SPW in PleromaFE and click on the @marmar22, it will open a tab with their account on origin instance.
Husky is trying look up links that kinda look like Fediverse links through search first and if it fails, open a browser. But the search didn't technically fail, so...

@hj @rin @shy I kinda remember adding some sort of safeguards for that, but that probably didn't went anywhere.
TBH that logic of a "URL that looks like a Fediverse link" is completely busted, it's basically just list of hardcoded regexes. And it's not my invention, it came from upstream. :D

@a1ba @rin @shy i remember it never working, just constantly stuck at loading or something.
