@vahnj Hello! I'm having a technical issue here on Mastodon and I was wondering if, as an admin, you'd be able to help. I tried following my sibling @fairywren when I first joined and they had locked their account at the time, so they could review and authorise or dismiss new followers. The follow button's stuck as an hourglass for me now, but Wren never received a notification and doesn't have the option to approve me as a follower. Any idea what's wrong or how to fix it?

@Krall @fairywren oh fun! I can fix that pretty easily on my end by removing your follow request. you'll be able to re-submit the request then. gimme one sec!

@Krall @fairywren all done! Refresh your page and try to send another follow.
