Another piece on #Mastodon by The Verge.

Almost every article I've read states that the service has shut down new registrations. Perhaps they should include a list of available Instances readers can sign up on.

@NattyGov just joined this instance. I've read somewhere that I have to follow people from the main instance to see those posts in federated? Could you help me out?

@blumenmarkt Are you on Cloud? I follow the federated timeline and it works for me. Consists of users from my local instance (Cloud) and the main/primary (Social).

If you're trying to find friends on another instance then @ them with their username + instance. It functions like an email address.

Hope that helps.
