I'm trying to login here --> https://canvas.fediverse.events/ but can't seem to.

Maybe this helps?

Same for me with the same error

I had the same problem, ended up login in with a lemmy account. Maybe piefed being still relatively new means it's not yet integrated in the Fediverse Auth system ?

Don't put a @ on the front, that'll get you to the next step and at that point it will try to send you a PM but it never arrives when I try it.

Sorry :)

I didn't put a @ there, the UI just shows that, if you look at the cURL request it's just my username
