Continuously frustrated at how hard it is just to follow an account here. I've spent the last ten minutes trying to follow a particular account and it just won't work. 😠
@TJ_dacks That person may have set their account to require manual approval of followers. It's a bit different here. 😀

The user or instance may also block you or our instance. If you indicate who the user is I may be able to tell you if thats the case.
@freemo @nature_jcp um ok as an example... The user is @StarTrekHour@tenforward.social
I followed their link from Twitter and tried to follow, but it said I needed to input my own name@server and it kept saying I was doing it wrong. It always does no matter what account I'm trying to follow, never works. If I try to search the user name from qoto search bar it simply doesn't turn up. Zero results for the phrase "star trek" which seems impossible. But search is aggravating in it's own way so I'm not sure if it's an account issue or I'm formulating the search terms wrong.
Yes that user blocks our instance, sorry. I used to follower her and know her well, sadly I remember her blocking our instance because we allow conservatives on our instances (despite our no hate speech rules).
@freemo @nature_jcp so that's weird because that user is not a she. It's one of Joe Window's accounts he's moving from Twitter
@freemo @nature_jcp Joe Sondow, i mean
