Does anybody here have an idea why I can't follow @nicoleprause@qoto.org? It just fails with a "user not found" error.

@cheetah_spottycat maybe your instance doesn't fedarate and/or have that one blocked ?

@cheetah_spottycat @NexCarter

qoto.org sounds familiar... ah yes,. we blocked them awhile back, citing:

"An inclusive free speech instance," transmisia, COVID-19 vaccine misinformation, etc.

(That's also shown on our "About" page, under "Moderated servers".)

I'll change that to a "silence", so you can follow specific people there.

It's possible they shifted their policy since the ban, though it's hard to tell without access to their public timeline. I'm open to futher information/discussion on this question.
