Interestingly, "following" a user is not enough in the Nostr world. You have to also "follow" their relays to be able to exchange Notes. If you follow someone and don't have common relays then it is not sufficient 🤯

there’s got to be a user friendly way to do both at once. Not doing this astral.ninja shit

Yeah....the client can suggest or add a common relay if you Follow someone but that means the client is driving what relays you add....versus the user is driving in control.  tricky.

How would you have found that user, if not connected to one of their relays?

Side question: I currently don't know how to resolve an event not found issue, where someone links to something where I don't know where it came from.

You can lookup a user by PK and follow. You will not see their Notes if you are not on same relay...as I understand.
