Odd account nesting in mastodon account

Firstly, thanks a bunch for accommodating my request for writing.exchange access

I finally got around to setting it up today. As I was perusing some posts, I noticed something off about my username:

What’s going on here? This is in the official iOS app. The web interface seems fine: Erlend (@erlend@writing.exchange) - Writing Exchange

Yeah especially since it looks fine on the web, I’d say this is a bug with the Mastodon iOS app. Very odd, but I doubt there’s anything I can do on our end. Might want to report this bug to them.

### Is there an existing issue for this? - [X] I have searched the existing i…ssues ### Current Behavior This is my account: https://writing.exchange/@erlend On the web interface it works fine. As I was perusing some posts on iOS, I noticed something off about my username: ![C98CE161-3BBA-4E29-8D0D-C0AA15EF07AE](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/583842/217478904-676ca8dd-1642-43c1-9031-2f8dc29390fc.jpeg) ![656CAC23-72ED-4E04-A6AF-882C9805B803](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/583842/217478917-d973fa7e-9c9c-4737-83a7-28df23f8a64c.jpeg) What’s going on here? This doesn’t affect my game-studio account on a different network. ### Expected Behavior My account name in the iOS app should appear as `@erlend@writing.exchange`, without an additional `@erlend` in front. ### Steps To Reproduce 1. Sign up on writing.exchange (invite only) 2. Use official iOS app. ### Environment ```markdown - Device: iPad Pro - OS: iOS 16.2 - Version: 1.4.9 - Build: 224 ``` ### Anything else? _No response_
