When interacting across servers on Mastodon (on another server), you'll run into this dialog which is not intuitive or seamless.

The call to action is obscure and requires multiple non-intuitive steps. Cleaning this up would definitely make the experience feel more cohesive.

@fleker Half the time I get that window. The other half of the time I get an enter your username and instance and then it lets me follow through. I'm not sure if it's a bug or what.

@granite I'd much rather have the system figure out how to properly link me straight to the appropriate window. And maybe that's not entirely feasible based on the system design. But for simple operations I don't want to jump through hoops.

@fleker I don't like it either. Especially since the instructions don't work. The other window I get is better as at least when you type in your username it takes you to your server where you can then interact the way you want to. These are definitely the types of things that will slow Mastodon adoption long term. #twittermigration
