Thanks for writing this up.
The way I find people is by subscribing to hashtags of topics that I am interested in. Then when you read interesting posts under a hashtag, you just subscribe to the author. That should be more widely known.

@cdoremus @kissane The problem is that the official app doesn't support it.
Whether we like it or not, the vast majority of "normal people" do everything on smartphones, and if the app can't do it, they won't do it, as having them sign on with a browser is just making it needlessly complicated.
The Web UI for Mastodon is mostly *great*, but the official app lacks so much stuff and also uses different terms for stuff which is frustrating.
IMO, there should be a push for feature parity here.
