Description

When tapping Bluesky → Connect, there is a Malformed request. Please go back to the previous page and try again.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Open Jetpack Mobile
  2. Tap "More" in a site's dashboard
  3. Tap "Social"
  4. Tap "Bluesky," then tap "Connect"
  5. Get error

I tested both a plugin-enabled site and a site without plugins.

App version 25.6
Device details: Pixel 8 Pro
