Hey, folks, I just got a new phone, and reinstalled Eternity on it. But no matter which account I try to log in with, I’m getting an error (“cannot fetch user info”) when I try to log in.

Any help is much appreciated. I’m not sure if eternity is on the play store, but I got it through f droid if that matters.

        Settings -> Apps -> Eternity -> Mobile Data and WiFi

        Depending on your ROM, you should see one or all of these toggles

        • Allow network access
        • WiFi data
        • Mobile data
        • Background data
        • VPN data
        • Unrestricted data usage

        The first 2 at least should be enabled by default

        Tbh I don’t think this is the issue, there hasn’t been an update to eternity in 6 months and I wouldn’t be surprised if its buggy from a Lemmy update

          We’ve got a winner! It didn’t work with eternity, but eternity (nightly) works after turning on data while data saver is turned on. Thank you!

            while data saver is turned on

            This might be the problem. Are you using a Xiaomi phone?

    I had this issue a couple of months ago, when I tried to login via email. Try it with your username if you haven’t already.

    Same happened to me a few days ago on a new tablet. If anyone finds a solution, do let me know.
