   @MonaApp I’m now getting this error in my timeline and still can’t get mentions. The app is basically unusable for me at this point.

     @superjosh @Ronnie I don't think there is anything I can do on my end. Only @MonaApp can fix whatever is causing that because all other third party software is working fine AKAIK. So, it must be an issue with the app.

     @Ronnie @MonaApp This is more a question for @mastohost I’m afraid.

     Hey @superjosh, whenever you have time read this thread, it’s interesting or not. ? I’m not a tech person so I don’t know but it sounds interesting.

     @Ronnie Sorry about that. I checked that the error could occur if accessing your server’s Mastodon API ended up returns a webpage (HTML) instead of formatted data. Haven’t figure out why the server would behave like that.

     @mastohost @superjosh @Ronnie Thanks for the reply. I guess other clients have there workarounds. Do you know in what kind of situation calling a Mastodon API will get HTML instead of JSON? I never get HTML when communicating with mastodon.social

     @MonaApp What is the API request you are making and what is the message returned in HTML?

     @MonaApp In some situations that happens, example: https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues/19044

     @superjosh In that case yes but it could be another situation. Just sent that link because it's a case where an API request can return HTML. Probably there are others.

     @mastohost @Ronnie @MonaApp Seems to be if signups are closed?

     @mastohost @superjosh @Ronnie I didn’t find any particular pattern, it appears to occur in all sorts of APIs (notifications, user ID lookup, following list etc.) About the HTML part, some says server is on maintenance mode, some says browser unsupported (what browser?…), or Cloudflare stuff, or just a blank webpage with metadata and empty body.
