Frequently asked questions

The tool looks up all the people you follow, and then the people{' '} they follow. Then it sorts them by the number of mutuals, or otherwise by how popular those accounts are. Not at all! This app uses public APIs to fetch potential people you can follow on Mastodon. In fact, it only does inauthenticated network requests to various Mastodon instances. Don't worry. The list of suggestions will load in 30 seconds or so. Sometimes it gets stuck because one or more of the queries made to Mastodon time out. This is not a problem, because the rest of the queries will work as expected. There could be a few reasons:
  • This tool only works if your list of follows is public. If you've opted to hide your social graph, you will not see any results here.
  • Due to the high volume of requests, sometimes Mastodon throttles this tool. If that's the case, try again a bit later.
  • Make sure you have no typos in the Mastodon handle, and make sure you follow at least a few people to seed the search.
