You might flag (report) your own post – use the context menu – and request a move. [image: 1775296831019-9400fcf9-5384-407d-934e-5f5517501016-image.jpeg]

@rl_dane@polymaths.social Solved. In a topic elsewhere, I wrongly assumed using the space bar was the correct way to accept what's highlighted in the screenshot below: [image: 1775269124221-d3785f34-bcba-4e12-83b7-251dff3fced4-image.jpeg] Actual result: the highlighted context menu item is ignored, not accepted. I think of this as a UX bug. Maybe from NodeBB mimicing the UX of Discourse … I vaguely recall having this problem years ago. Too late to resolve, attempting to the change the default behaviour would cause uproar.

The problem here was auto-fill. The normal hint is automatically hidden by my real email address (pixelated in the screenshot below): [image: 1775270267359-6404e482-4e9b-4ed8-99ce-17d9e0b61814-image.jpeg] Keyword in the screenshot above: whatever. My email address is used for the Mastodon instance, but does not identify the instance. Whatever. After clearing the auto-fill, the hint is visible: [image: 1775270520828-85e70b11-6b73-4649-8a46-757476cfbf2c-image.jpeg] Eg username@mastodon.social The opening post is solved (tagged), I have flagged it for a move to the test area. Apologies for the noise.
