It is extremely hard to find good follows on this site as a new account.
@oldjacket If you are looking for a specific person you want to follow you can search against all followed federated servers to find the person.
@obi the phone app I mean
@oldjacket which app are you using? I have multiple accounts on multiple servers, so that's how I follow other stuff I guess. Tusky allows multiple accounts.
@oldjacket I have been off for a while, so I hope this info is accurate. No, the instance will decide which servers to follow, and will show up in the federated timeline. However, you can mute some of those servers, so they all won't be showing in that timeline. I thought a few years ago he was working on a way for a user to add specific servers, but don't know if he did it or not. I will look into it today and try to figure it out.
@oldjacket I don't know about what apps can do on mobile, but you can add a server's timeline in the form of a column here on qoto's web interface. Pretty snazzy. Thanks for making me look into it, it will help!
@obi are there ways to follow new servers from the app?
