Description
Although my account (`@rokejulianlockhart:dendrite.matrix.org`) now (2026-07-07) returns:
> ~~~YAML
> Failed to login: {"errcode":"M_FORBIDDEN","error":"The username or password was incorrect or the account does not exist."}
> ~~~
…back when it existed (2023-05-04) I observed:
> ~~~YAML
> Whoops! Something went wrong: {"errcode":"M_UNKNOWN","error":"Internal Server Error"}
> ~~~
