Just to make clear, you can interact with users from other Mastodon servers by putting their address into the search box and pressing enter.
Their profile link will appear in the search results, click on it to see their profile. You can then follow them, read their posts or interact in any other way. Click on their profile's "..." button to see even more options.
See the attached image for an example.
You only need one account to interact with people, even if they are on another server. The whole point of Mastodon is that people on one server can interact with people on thousands of other servers.
Happy Birthday, America. Keep up the fight y'all. Stay safe, stay sane, live to fight another day! 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🇺🇸

What is your favorite Mastodon client app for mobile these days?
I thought to myself “I wish I could visit Twitter and only see posts about games and gamedev. And then I remembered this server! 👍😎👍

I haven’t peeked in on Mastodon in a bit. How are things holding up here in the midst of COVID-19 and everyone working from home?
Words are magic spells we cast through the ether directly into each other's hearts and minds. They can inspire love, joy, hope, fear, or doubt... use them wisely!

Nice to see git addressing some of command line complexities. "checkout" command is way complexicated, the new "switch" and "restore" make sense. https://github.blog/2019-08-16-highlights-from-git-2-23/
Traveling to #gamescom soon. Hit me with your top tips so I can read them on the plane! ✈

Help save the Internet, do not use Chrome!
Late night chat thread: what piece of software have you recently fallen in love with? I’ll go first: Greasemonkey for Firefox. I’m super happy with 🔥🦊 and 🛠🐵 makes me feel less held captive in my own browser.
Holy crap I just realized the Vita can map the right analog stick to almost anything when playing PSP games. This is major y’all.
Is there an official term for the psychological phenomenon that happens when you’re interrupted in an un-pausable game?
Friday night chat thread: what game do you wish you could go back in time and invent yourself? I’ll go first... Tetris!
