DOES THAT MEAN I CAN ONLY INTERACT WITH PEOPLE ON MY MASTODON SERVER?

NOPE!

[I'm not shouting. Well, I guess I'm shouting...]

All servers interact with each other behind the scenes. The only noticeable difference is that people have different servers at the end of their account addresses.

@mastodonmigration in the other place, if I followed someone interestimg, I would browse their following list & find more people to follow. Can't do that here - it only shows following list for this instance. Is that everywhere?

@Rdonair So, there seem to be some data migration issues with federation, and one of them is how data like followers and following propagates across the network. It can take some time for all of the data to get updated on other servers, as it seems to be done at very low priority background processes. But, check back tomorrow. Right now @mastodonmigration has 110 following.
