Jessica BerlinHello fellow Twitpocalypse escapees 👋 I’ll be cross posting from Twitter here (you can find me there as @berlin_bridge). But quick tech support question first: why can’t I/how do you follow people here? So far when I click on the Follow button nothing happens, what gives? 🤷🤔

The big servers have a lot of lag and issues due to the inflow of twitter refugees (30K per day atm). I would suspect that's what you're seeing.
Also, since there's no algorithm to populate your Home feed or offer suggestions, it feels empty when you start out. Follow everyone who seems reasonable, then unfollow the unfortunate mistakes.
I've been here two weeks and my feed is starting to get acceptable.
