400 – No Mastodon instance named.

No Mastodon instance named. Answered with 400.

What it means

Every Mastodon account lives on an instance, and Tigby has to be told which one. The account named none, or named something that is not a host name.

What to do

Name the account as @user@instance – @orderbot@mastodon.social – or give the instance on its own.
