Getting 'Minecraft you're already connected on this proxy' error - how to fix it?

yo guys, thanks for all the suggestions! i tried the VPN trick and it worked like a charm. i used ProtonVPN (free version) and was able to join the server no problem.

i also asked my friend to restart the BungeeCord proxy, just in case. seems like it was a combo of both issues.

still kinda weird that it only happens on this one server tho. anyone know why that might be? is it just a BungeeCord thing?

thanks again, y’all are legends! 🙌
