Not the app!

After installing it on my phone and a different tablet, it repeated the same thing on the phone, but not the other tablet.

Turns out that on the older tablet, I don't have the VPN set up be always on. Turned it on, problem appeared. Switched though a few different exit locations and it would work on some, but not others.

So it's a piefed.social thing with VPNs, I think.

On my main tablet, I kept the same exit server since a few days before I tried the app the first time, and the app was initially working, so I didn't even think that might be the issue. So they apparently blocked that one fairly recently.

Can do. I'm trying to see if it's my device, or something else before I report. 9/10 times, it ends up being something local that's the problem, and I'm just now installing on other devices.

I tend to do all my fediverse stuff on one old-ish tablet, so I've learned to check before bothering devs lol
