this, lemm.ee, does not, but i know some instances do.
You can follow users using Mastodon (I follow myself here from Mastodon). Not sure about other Fedi software.
what instances allow you to follow users?

You can try mbin (ex kbin) which allows to follow users including Mastodon/misskeys account. While having a nicer UI than Lemmy. Only issue is that the default UI doesn’t display the embedded images

None of the Lemmy instances do. The software Lemmy does not support that.
But Mbin does. Mbin also works better with Mastodon.
I don’t know what Piefed supports.

That’s also why I use lemmy and not twatter/mastadon/any other clones. I’m not interested in some dudes random train of thoughts, I want X communities for Y interests I have. Not every person has exactly the same interests as me and I don’t really want to be bothered seeing that stuff.

But it’d be nice to follow institutions. Many European governments have their own Mastodon servers.

There's no following of users in PieFed, so in that sense it's more like Lemmy.
