@Gargron why cant my follows be accepted here? it goes to the other account instead?

@Pttr1 I don't understand

@Gargron when i follow somebody, they dont stay on this account but they go to my other account on Mastodon instead, unless they followed me so it stays here.

@Pttr1 I am still really confused about what it is that stays/goes. Maybe links or screenshots or examples?

@Gargron ''a follows X and b gets the result?'' a+b joint account? for X sake? I just let in the fans to my other account thru this current one, i cant say it on a screenshot too well.

@Gargron cutie.space is not mastodon is what i am saying

@Pttr1 cutie.space runs mastodon and i can see your messages just fine from mastodon.social idk what you're talking about

@Gargron I cant follow from Cutie.Space therefore my Home TL is empty. It transfers the followed to Mastodon.Social, another account i own.

@Pttr1 from cutie.space, enter [email protected] into the search bar, click on the suggestion that comes up, click on follow. Does that not work?

@Gargron just found i was already following you from the 'other account' so i unfollowed and refollowed, now check it.

@Pttr1 is @cajun you? So why did you follow me from mastodon.social?

@Gargron @cajun I did not, this is the issue i'm trying to FIX.

@Pttr1 No one else seems to be having this problem including @nanoha from your instance, which is why I suspect that you're just doing something wrong or misunderstand something :T

@Gargron I can confirm that I don't understand the issue @Pttr1 reportedly has.

Perhaps @Pttr1 doesn't understand how federation works?

@nanoha @Gargron what is this fucking assertion, you mad as well?

@Pttr1 @Gargron mad? no. I'd like to understand the problem you're having and help you solve it.

@nanoha @Gargron Think of it as diverting a follower to another Instance.

@Pttr1 @Gargron what you're describing, so far as I know, cannot happen

if this instance isn't managing to follow people, that's a different issue

@nanoha @Gargron yes, and? do you own a Mastodon.Social account?

@Pttr1 @Gargron yes. it works like any other mastodon.social account.

@nanoha @Gargron Well did you use the same email for both accounts, or even similar ones? Cos i did.

@Pttr1 @Gargron No.

I could.

But it would make no difference either way.
