Question about the fediverse!
Mhhh so I think I did it? I just created a new account and linked back and forth?
Question about the fediverse!
@david So I've created a new account... This is just a quick test if this link works: @hollowspecter
Say I find a cool profile on pixelfed. How can I follow it? Like how do I get to the overlay that I can follow it from this Mastodon instance?
Thank you for your patience :)
Question about the fediverse!
@hollowspecter @hollowspecter I don't know if that's a thing. I manually search to follow, which isn't ideal. In the top left in the web Mastodon client you can type the username of the person (the @ + name + @ + pixelfed instance) to find them

@david @hollowspecter A brilliant, that's it! Thanks!
Question about the fediverse!
@hollowspecter Yeah, you would need a different account to use it. The federated part is that you can for instance follow @Wolfpaw and see the photos that I post to that Pixelfed instance.
Heck, you can even follow @david if you want to see posts from my website federated here!
You can then interact with each, assuming that the services that other accounts are on have a way to handle those interactions (these do).
