@SussilloDavid I ran into this using a web browser. But using the app tusky on Android i just click on a person's name and they come up with a follow button. I've seen people say this is the best app for Android and Metatext is the best for IOS.
@kendmiller @SussilloDavid this works on web too if you click a link from your feed, and it opens in the same window. The url ends up something like https://qoto.org/web/@mrdrozdov@sigmoid.social
It’s definitely not ideal though…
@SussilloDavid p.s. a follow button that you just click and they're followed. Not one you click to get a link you have to copy and then paste and then ...
