Show HN: Getstarted.social – Easy-to use follow suggestions for Mastodon

Mastodon is cool, but finding the first people to follow on other servers and figuring out how to follow them is a messy experience.

I quickly hacked together this prototype site to see if it was possible to have Twitter-style follow suggestions where you can click and follow someone without manually copy-and-pasting links from Google sheets into search bars.

It was also an excuse to see how Mastodon's remote-follow API works. The following is done client-side so no information is shared with this server.
