@feditips I don't know if I understand 100%. After entering in my info to Remote Follow I got a redirect to follow on my home instance and that's the first time I saw the channel on my instance. From there I followed locally. So I don't know if this is a 'true' remote follow based on what you're saying. I never logged into their server, but it did force some kind of search to pick up the channel finally on my instance.
