Logging in as @wiert@mastodon.social gives error after authorisation

[jpluimers]

Not sure if this is a bug on the Twitodon side or on mastodon.social`, but I got the below error after these steps:

1. Browse to https://twitodon.com/
2. Authorise Twitter (in my case @jpluimers)
3. Authorise Mastodon (in my case @wiert@mastodon.social)

The last step then returns to Twitodon as https://twitodon.com/mastodonAuth?code=<snipped> whit this error message:

{"statusCode":500,"error":"Internal Server Error","message":"https://%40wiert@mastodon.social/oauth/token is an url with embedded credentials."}

Later tried step 3 with https://mastodon.social/@wiert which both authorised well, and ended up at https://twitodon.com/ where I could do a successful scan.

What did you paste into the mastodon field to authorise in the first instance? Did you type your mastodon account handle (@wiert@mastodon.social)?

The field is supposed to take the address of your instance without any usernames attached, so it might be the cause if you did include your handle.

Yes, that's what I did. I think in that case the input-field should validate that, as invalidate input and not continue as the continuation results in an incomprehensible error message.

Agreed. I'll try to get it sorted.
