Description

When I attempt to follow user `ewust` I receive the following error:

`▶ ERROR Chain link prev hash mismatch error: Chain mismatch at seqno=12`

Is there a way to resolve this on my end?

my log id: 6d01c84ffee18f3a16cc6c1c

Start by reproducing the follow attempt for user `ewust` and inspect the reported chain mismatch at seqno=12 using log id `6d01c84ffee18f3a16cc6c1c`. Done means identifying the cause of the prev-hash mismatch and documenting a verified resolution or the required user-side steps.
