freamon , 5 months ago I know for sure that Lemmy won’t, it’s likely the same for Mastodon. I was wrong about not being able to WebFinger your account - I still had the @ at the beginning when I trying. Doing it properly: <span style="color:#323232;">curl --header 'accept: application/json' https://mostr.pub/.well-known/webfinger?resource=acct:910af9070dfd6beee63f0d4aaac354b5da164d6bb23c9c876cdf524c7204e66d@mostr.pub | jq . </span> gets the right response. However, I’m logged into lemmy.world and it still couldn’t get your account. At a guess, it’s because there’s a 20 character limit on usernames.
