@feditips Hi. Would appreciate any insight on this question:
Is it possible for users to somehow follow a account that happens to be on a blocked instance?
Thanks.

@islamicaudiobooks

There's no way to follow an account on an instance that your instance has blocked (suspended).

There is another kind of milder block called silencing where you can follow people, but this isn't really a proper block.
