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.

It's not happening now, thanks!

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?

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!

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

~~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

Happening still/again :/

1.0.150

This is next multi account level!

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.

I tried testing it out in the connect app by going to a link you commented on and clicking I think what is your mtgzone username and it correctly took me to the correct profile for me

My issue came about when clicking my profile in the left bar

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Oh so clicking your own profile while signed in from the left slide menu is what causes the bug?

Holy shit that's even worse than I thought. Well, maybe not worse, but seems like a bigger bug.
