Is there a way on Mastadon to see who other people are following if they are not on the same server?
PSA: The simple answer seems to be that you have to do it via your desktop's web browser (where you can easily pop to their local page as an intermediate step) rather than trying to do it on a phone app.
@charlie_savage Quite a bit of functionality on the desktop not in the app. I was having trouble finding bookmarks but I see them on desktop
@DanielTuttle @charlie_savage It would be a nice feature for rebuilding my follow network via the app.
@DanielTuttle @charlie_savage ah I wondered why I couldn’t find it!
@inklings @charlie_savage fwiw, if you download the Tusky app for one of the other unofficial ones, it has more complete features
@charlie_savage Tusky let's me do that in the app
@charlie_savage I've been using my phone's browser rather than an app and it works fine there too!

@charlie_savage There are multiple apps. The official app doesn't currently support the "Local" or "Federated" timeline. However, others like metatext (my app of choice) do!

@charlie_savage Yes. It's a bit clunky, but when you click on their followers link and get the response that you can't see followers on other servers, there should be another link under that note saying something like, "click here to browse on the original profile." That link should take you to their main profile page and you should be able to click and see their followers there.
@charlie_savage I have the app and can see others’ followers just like on Twitter.

@charlie_savage it appears so because I can see your list? But unclear to me, sometimes functions seem to work and sometimes not
@charlie_savage Certain apps seem to handle this better than others. I like Metatext, for this reason among others. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/metatext/id1523996615
If you are an android user, you might check out Tusky.

@charlie_savage I’m using the Tootle app iOS for Mastodon. I can see others followers/following by going to their account.
@charlie_savage I've been going to their profile on their own server to do that.
@charlie_savage I am on another server and able to see your Following and Followers via your web profile pagehttps://noc.social/users/charlie_savage/following
