       (1) Find people on some Mastodon server, either via a tool like https://pruvisto.org/debirdify/ to automate Twitter searching or, once bootstrapped, by looking at who they follow(2) Open the profile page of a person I found in step 1(3) click on the Follow button(4a) New popup browser window where I can type my @username@server, okay fine, I can cut-and-paste that a bunch✨or✨ (4b) Overlay that offers me a URL to copy/paste back to a search box on my home Mastodon server?  Oof that's a lossy flow...

       Ah and flow (4a) only requires you copy-and-paste once for each other federated server whose people you want to follow; after that it remembers you.  While (4b) still requires copying and pasting into a search box on your home instance each time?  Am I doing this wrong?

       I was sort of hoping that there was instead a way to see profiles of people on other federated servers while I'm actually on my home server, so that an operation like "follow one of their followers" could be a single click.  But AFAICT no?

       @Log3overLog2 If I wanted to see your profile, I'd type in your username "@Log3..." followed by "@mathstodon.xyz". I don't know how it works on mastodon instances, but it's probably similar.

       @ceo_of_monoeye_dating Right but can you see all of the people I follow in that view?  (I think not, from my experiments, but I also think I don't know how much consistency there is across different instances!!)

       @Log3overLog2 I can see at least some, but not all of them. I see *that* you follow 4 people, but I can't see who they are. That said, bae.st gets defederated from a lot of places, so it's hard to tell.image.png
