If you use the @FediFollows directory (at https://mastodon.online/@FediFollows/108521414258703203), when you click on an account's follow button it will ask you to enter your own Mastodon address, in a process called "remote follow".

Remote follows are annoying as you have to keep entering your details again and again, even though you've already logged in on your home server 🤬

Fortunately, there is now a solution, a new plug-in for Firefox browsers called "Mastodon Simplified Federation":

When the plug-in is installed, you don't need to enter your address any more when doing remote follows 👍

The plug-in is written by @rugk and you can find out more info at https://github.com/rugk/mastodon-simplified-federation

(Thanks @aral for mentioning this plugin!)
