@GoldieYock yeah that is correct, your friend would need to tell you that you signed up, and there's no way to just search every account ever. it's very much like email -- in order to email someone you need them to tell you their address. same deal here. It is certainly less convenient than searching every known account for a person you know (which isn't really how this works, it would be like having a directory of all email addresses ever)
@GoldieYock it's a slower kind of growth here, more intentional. I like it but it's not for everyone
