Wow this is worse than I thought. This is what I see on the official #Mastodon iOS app when trying to view a Threads account from an instance that has suspended them.

It doesn’t just say “not found”; it says the account doesn’t exist (with a typo).

iOS Mastodon search UI. I have entered “@potus@threads.net” in the search field, tapped “Go to user,” and a modal appears that reads:

“No User Account Found. There is no Useraccount [sic] ‘potus’ on threads.net”
