Friendica fact of the day: you can compose huge posts on Friendica, add inline media (photos/videos), and even stylize the text (bold, italic, underline, add links to words or sentences). So you can use it as a Twitter or Facebook alternative. No limitations.

I use it daily and can follow anyone. Can you please tell me what account you cannot follow? Maybe that instance blocked us or something?

I just followed you for example. All worked instantly.

In Friendica what account type you have selected? Maybe you do not accept friend requests. This is how mine is:

@Rokosun I think you came across a similar issue at one point?
in reply to Tio

I started on Friendica some time ago, using the friendiqa client for Android, but found it clunky, ugly and slow, so I never really used it.

Is there a better client for mobile, or is Friendica best left to browsers? Or should I just use Tusky for both?

Friendica is a different beast now. It works with pretty much all Mastodon apps. Plus, for our own instance, we made custom themes that in my view look a lot better, more modern.

โ€ฆand also you see mastodon posts and vice versa, so you can keep communicating with the same people. (But the interface is seriously outdated.)

Our instance uses a different cusotm made theme. More modern in my view. Different colors and dark/light variations. Also it works with any Mastodon apps.
in reply to Tio

As far as I know there is only one fully working public theme. I cannot comment yours. I just wish there was some modern and fully working theme.
in reply to grin

Yes our theme is built upon the Frio theme. I made it more simple, I'd say. You can see screenshots here trom.tf/social/

Thanks for letting me know about social.trom.tf and about the trade free movement, which I hadn't heard of before.

@Tio
No, I think that was someone else. I haven't had any issue with following other accounts on Friendica, at least so far.

I'm currently using #Fedilab (fedilab.app). It has its issues, but the developer is interested in improving Friendica support, so you can report bugs and they're quick to fix it.
