That’s also why I use lemmy and not twatter/mastadon/any other clones. I’m not interested in some dudes random train of thoughts, I want X communities for Y interests I have. Not every person has exactly the same interests as me and I don’t really want to be bothered seeing that stuff.
Institutions could be the only time I’d be interested in following “a person”. But at the same time they could just make their own community that only they can post in.

But it’d be nice to follow institutions. Many European governments have their own Mastodon servers.
