It's asking me for user name and email info. Doesn't like any of the user names I've tried.

@BronwynHemsley Yes, that's where I am.

@BronwynHemsley Haven't gotten that far. Still on Step 1. Maybe I'm doing Step 1 incorrectly? (I'm trying to replicate what I did for my current group).

@BronwynHemsley Thanks. New obstacle: I keep getting "please match the requested format" errors with various variations of:katharinebeals@fediscience.org

@BronwynHemsley Pretty sure it'll ask me for my password, but I'll try.

@BronwynHemsley Possible to submit a request for approval from within @learningdisabability? I.e., without having to go out and log back into Mastodon?

@BronwynHemsley Super frustrating. I seem to have to log back into Mastodon in order to reconnect via an external Google search. Password not recognized when I do that. Tried resetting. Never got a reset email (many users report similar experience). Luckily I seem to be still logged in to my group (aka server? instance?) via original password. I don't dare log out till this is resolved. If there's some way to join your group from my group, that might work.

@BronwynHemsley Now I'm having password issues.... Waiting for a reset.

@BronwynHemsley How do I join? (Sorry, totally new at this).

@BronwynHemsley no, nothing happens. I had trouble finding you as well--had to type your entire handle. Perhaps there's some setting I need to change.

@BronwynHemsley Perhaps that's the problem. Nothing auto-fills or comes up when I type it in.

@BronwynHemsley If I type @UTSDisability, should something come up? I'm not seeing anything.

@BronwynHemsley Have logged in on a new browser. All looks good from here.

@BronwynHemsley Will try. Also I can't find @UTSDisability

@BronwynHemsley Weird. I'm on my desktop now and see them.

@BronwynHemsley I think my photo is visible now--can you see it?

@BronwynHemsley I thought I knew the whole story... until very recently.

Nice to have my name back. Some day I'll tell you what happened on Twitter!

@BronwynHemsley thank you! I'm trying to figure out how to "like" your message!
