Is there, or is there going to be, a way to "follow" Lemmy users apart from subscribing to communities?

There’s no way to follow Lemmy users on Lemmy, though ironically, you can follow Lemmy users on Mastodon.

You can also follow a user’s RSS feed. The URL format is: https://HOSTNAME/feeds/u/USERNAME.xml?sort=New

Following a user is more like Mastodon than Lemmy, you might wanna use Mastodon in the case I think

True, I am looking for "get threads boosted by this account". If Mastodon did threads well, I would have stayed on it. I wouldn't care for it at all if I could also "follow" accounts on Lemmy (and the accounts that matter were on Lemmy).
