It's exactly the same way you follow people on your home instance.

I can see you've followed me for example, and we are on different instances (you're on ioc.exchange and I'm on mstdn.social).

@feditips @rye but if you happen to be on the persons profile, it is not obvious. You have to copy the link or handle+instance and paste it on your instance's search box... and then click on the person+ button.

No?

You just click follow?

Yes, if you're browsing their profile on another server's website, you have to copy and paste.

But you don't have to do that when you're just browsing profiles within your own server?

@feditips @rye yes you are right, but is common for people to stride into a profile page on another server and be very confused. I think it merits a guide.
