Bug description

When Phanpy fetches a webfinger account that resolves to a URL encoded string, it decodes the URL before fetching the actor. For example, if the actor resolves to https://example.com/test%253example, Phanpy will fetch https://example.com/test:example instead of fetching the encoded URL verbatim.

To reproduce

No response

Expected behavior

Fetch the encoded URL verbatim.

@reesericci Is it possible to add more details? E.g. were you using the search feature? Or paste the URL in the location bar?

I was using the search feature, as in pasting the URL and hitting the "look up" button
