If you're putting content on FunkWhale, bear in mind that channels can be followed from Mastodon etc but accounts cannot be.

So, if you want people to follow your FunkWhale content from elsewhere on the Fediverse, it's your FunkWhale channel address(es) that you want to advertise.

To make clear:

-Following a FunkWhale channel works fine, just as expected. You can paste the address into Mastodon etc and click follow.

-Trying to follow a FunkWhale account from Mastodon etc doesn't work, it just brings up a "follow request" message that is never resolved.

(For any developers out there who would be interested in fixing this bug, there's an open issue about it at https://dev.funkwhale.audio/funkwhale/funkwhale/-/issues/1315)
