That's unfortunate. Give Mlem a shot and see if it lets you login with your username. My guess is that this server is just getting overloaded.

I may have found a solution. i was logging in with my email and I should have been using my username.
Been trying out Lemmy and have been looking for a good Apolo Alternative.
I joined on lemmy.world, but pretty much any 3rd party app will just return "Record not found" or "User Not Found" or "Something went wrong"
Would this be due to lemmy.world's update to 1.18? or have I done something wrong?
It depends on what instance you are trying to access it from. I tried to use it with my account on mastodon.social but they seem to have blocked it (you can check on the about page for your instance)
mstdn.social hasn’t blocked it though.
I find it strange because these instances don’t say anything about bots like this being against the rules.
