For example, VT Social is for VTubers and creators themselves, but if you just want to follow me or other people on the instance, you can create an account on any other one and do it! Just paste my ID (@lina) into the search box on your instance and click follow!

@spider623 What do you mean exactly? Remote follow? A screenshot would be helpful ^^

@lina what i get

@lina what i should be getting

@spider623 @lina Read the "On a different server" section........................

The UI you said you should be getting is the old Mastodon 3 UI. The one you're getting on vt.social is the Mastodon 4 UI

@april @lina aha i see, then the instruction need to be more clear, that is the search in your mastodon instance and not the browser address bar

@spider623 @lina It says "the search bar of your favourite app or the web interface where you are signed in"

@april @lina yes but if it's not someone like us with technical knowledge, the "or the web interface" for a normal user will be the address bar, it should say "in the search box of the mastodon instance you are logged in" always assume the user is a potatoe, it's design 101

@spider623 @lina https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/20302

@april @lina wow that was fast

@dylanchapell @spider623 Yeah, that's normal! You have to follow from your own server, that's why the right hand side tells you to copy and paste the ID ^^
