Can anyone tell me why it is no longer possible to search for users in Friendica, using the wording @userid@instance.domain?


Good morning everyone !Friendica Admins

I noticed that for some time now it is no longer possible to search for users of the fediverse using the wording @userid@instance.domain, but you need to indicate the complete link of the profile...

Although with Friendica, unlike mastodon, it was necessary to insert the @ before the user and it has always been practically impossible to find users even with a simple userid, this possibility was there and it worked. Not anymore today

The problem is that it is not very practical to remember that the different ways in which links of friendica, mastodon, pleroma, misskey users are written, not to mention the difference in links between lemmy communities and lemmy users...

Can anyone tell me what the problem is? And above all, if it is necessary to open an issue on github?

Friendica Admins reshared this.
