You can follow specific accounts from another server (say follow [email protected] from [email protected]). However currently you cannot follow another server entierly (aka. local timeline). If you want both local timelines, you have to register two accounts.

Some clients allow for this. I use Toot on iOS and I can swipe to get to the local timelines I’ve configured, as if they were another account for me.

This is good to know - thanks! I will look for something like this for Android.
Do you know if it is possible to subscribe (?) to two Mastodon servers at once? Say I am at a San Francisco server but also want to see what people post on an LA server, is there a straight forward way to do that or do I need to maintain two separate accounts on both servers?
