I wouldn't install a browser extension just for this. I think you can use a simple Twitter query[1] that will show you if your users mentioned mastodon links in their profile. Personally, the accounts I'm following are slowly moving out, so keeping track of the links is quite easy.

- shafyy 4y agoI think you misunderstood what this does. Because Mastodon is federated, when you visit a the profile of a user that's not on your instance, you cannot follow them with the click of a button. Rather, you need to log in to your instance and then search for their username. This exension makes it so that you can follow anybody with the click of a button.
- syx 4y agoI totally misunderstood the purpose of this extension. Now that you've pointed it out, it's clear that it's quite useful. I was previously manually entering all the users into the search box, which was a pain. I'm glad this extension exists to automate the process. It would be even better if Mastodon integrated something like this natively.
