Not sure if that’s the right place to ask, but I used to use Boost for Reddit and I was able to follow people (I don’t know if this was a Reddit or a Boost feature).
Is it possible to follow users in Lemmy? The only options I see are to either block or msg user.
There are thoughtful people whose opinions I value regardless of topic. Doesn’t mean I agree with them. Right now AFAIK the only {way} to see their content is to look at their profile.
