I exported from my old Friendica site wist@my-place.social (via https://my-place.social/settings/userexport) and ended with a wist.account file downloaded.

I went to https://friendica.world/user/import, pointed to the wist.account file, and clicked the [Import] button. It pauses a moment, then comes back with the import screen again -- no error, no confirmation.

But as far as I can tell, wist@friendica.world has not been created. Or, if it has, I can't figure out how to sign in or reset the password.

Am I missing something obvious here?
