I'm trying to understand the reason I can follow this account from @bipolaron, but I cannot figure out how to follow it back and it doesn't show up in my list of followers.

I guess give it a few more days... would be cool to know if I'm doing it right with an example though. I noticed that most profiles from other servers seem to have like a "virtual profile" on this server, and noticed that the one for bipolaron is a 404. Federation should in principle be working or how would I have found this profile from mastodon?

But sending messages as private, unlisted, and global with @unblended tagged don't seem to show up anywhere here, and tagging @bipolaron doesn't seem to cause any kind of notification there.

Would be helpful to figure out if I'm doing it wrong or if I just need to wait a while.
