Follow accounts through birdsite bridges (lemm.ee)

When searching for relevant accounts, I often come across users on Twitter/X with a birdsite mastodon bridge such as @firefox@birdsite.monster, which seems to be the most followed Firefox account on mastodon.

However, this account has no visible posts, and when I follow it I get a “Pending”.

How does this work? Thanks

bird.makeup. Yes, it works with any Twitter-account, but needs a long while to get updated. It it's not working by searching for @twitteruser@bird.makeup you can also manually add the account on https://bird.makeup/.
