Error screenshot

SUMMARY
Some alternative fediverse software like e.g. Akkoma does not implement Mastodons featured_tags API methods.
See https://docs.joinmastodon.org/methods/featured_tags/ and https://docs.akkoma.dev/stable-docs/development/API/differences_in_mastoapi_responses/#featured-tags

Because of that, visiting a profile when connected to an Akkoma instance shows this ugly error message at the top:

Failed to contact server: Error transferring https://.../api/v1/accounts/.../featured_tags - server replied: . Please check your settings.

Visiting the specified URL in a browser gets me a {"error":"Not implemented"} JSON response, so I would suggest to silently fail instead of showing this error every time.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Connect Tokodon with an account hosted on any Akkoma instance
2. Visit a profile

OBSERVED RESULT
See error message at the top

EXPECTED RESULT
Silently fail

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
OS: Arch Linux
KDE Plasma Version: 6.0.2
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.0.0
Qt Version: 6.6.2
