Please help me to understand a few things. If someone wants to follow me and they're on another server, why can't they just follow me? Why do I have to approve their request? Also, how do I do this? And finally, can I change this setting so that anyone can just follow me without me having to approve it?

@michael_rowe We’re following you on clonmeldigital.micro.blog and I dont’ think you approved the following because you’re in the fediverse.
