Hi! I understand you're seeing an error screen on your PI.FYI profile, and you mentioned it's due to having the wrong type of link in your bio. Let's work through this together to get your profile back in good shape.

First, a bit of context: The PI.FYI app can sometimes show errors if the bio contains links that aren't formatted properly or are unsupported. To fix this, we want to make sure your bio's link is valid and correctly input.

Here's what I suggest:

1. Open your PI.FYI profile edit section where you can update your bio link.
2. Check the link you've entered in your bio carefully. Make sure it follows the standard URL format, such as starting with "http://" or "https://". For instance, "https://example.com" is good, but "example.com" without the prefix might cause issues.
3. Remove any spaces or special characters that don't belong in the URL.
4. Try simplifying the link to a well-known, standard format if you're using a custom or shortened link to see if that helps.
5. Save your changes and then reload your profile page to check if the error still appears.

If after doing this you're still encountering the error, please let me know if you receive any specific error messages or can share the type of link you're using in your bio. That will help me dig deeper.

Also, sometimes the app caches certain data, so you might want to try closing and reopening the app or clearing its cache if possible on your Linux setup (depending on whether you use the app natively or via a browser).

If you need, I can guide you step-by-step through cleaning the cache or double-checking the link formatting! How does that sound?
