Deleting mastodon account caused mastodon.el to hang hard

[christoofar]

I did a trial of a mastodon server, wound up really not liking it.

While leaving the local timeline open I went over in a browser to kill my account on the server.

This caused mastodon-mode to lock up hard. C-g freed emacs up, but then going into M-x list-processes didn't work. I suspect this will happen on emacs26 as well.

I'm running git HEAD of emacs (emacs27, rebuilt 8 days ago from this post)

Likely not a high priority but other people who are experimenting with mastodon are likely to risk running into this. The only way to free myself was to SIGKILL emacs.

Thanks for the heads up.

Yeah, I can't imagine this will be a high priority thing to fix, but I'm glad you reported it.
