Welcome

What is this?

This service is meant to make it easier to follow people on ActivityPub instances through links online. This service allows users to have their local instance signup page a click away.

Make your own universal follow link

To construct your own universal follow link, just use this format:
https://follow.onl/a/#{user@instance}

For instance, I would use
https://follow.onl/a/#Linn@suedi.club
which becomes: This link

Do I need to authorize or anything?

No. This service does not require any authorization. It does not even require you to be logged in to your instance. It's just a simple redirect to your instance's follow page. The only thing you need to do is to make sure that you have a valid username on your instance. It doesn't even have to be your own username, since the follow-endpoint is not tied to any specific user.
