Mastodon is cool, but finding the first people to follow on other servers and figuring out how to follow them is a messy experience. I quickly hacked together this prototype site to see if it was possible to have Twitter-style follow suggestions where you can click and follow someone without manually copy-and-pasting links from Google sheets into search bars.
