Can anyone help. How can Emily change settings so she can see followers from every server, not just the one she's on? @stux please boost. πŸ™
@MrEFinch @stux thanks! I’m trying to work this out too.
@SuperlativeC @stux I think it's a but of a deal breaker for people at the moment and I suspect its something easily fixable in settings.
@MrEFinch @SuperlativeC @stux I can see people on other servers and follow ( all except one @mraharrison on his other server. Best suggestion is to ask folk for their Mastodon username. I am finding people through other people and people posting on the bird app. However, I needed a clear-out, so starting again with a smaller number of follows is fine. We can use hashtags and boost significant edu-posts to gain followers.
@MrEFinch @SuperlativeC @stux seems like there are architectural limitations on this, hence not possible. see https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues/8301
@spaceriker @MrEFinch @SuperlativeC @stux not sure if it helps but it is basically deliberate and by design as far as I know. You can still follow people and find them via name search of their mastodon handle name. Hashtags and reblogs however are really important. Almost like a beacon to like-minded people. Can be odd at first but it does work. This blog helps: https://blog.djnavarro.net/posts/2022-11-03_what-i-know-about-mastodon/#fn2
