@Ren_Ardana there's no notifications for follow requests, you have to go to getting started → follow requests to see if you have any.
I don't know why the developers thought this was a good idea, and I don't know why it STILL hasn't been fixed
@Ren_Ardana the emails are sent by your instance, the app doesn't handle it
@lizardsquid Thanks for letting me know! I'm using the tootdon app and I think it sends the emails.
