Adding followers on Diaspora (Pluspora)

Copy the username (@) and past into the Search dialog. That should find the user whether they're local to your instance or remote. I am dredmorbius@joindiaspora.com, as an example.

Click the "Add Contact" dropdown, and either add the user to an existing Aspect (similar to G+ Circles), or create a new one.

You can add users to multiple Aspects.

I've created a "Plussers" Aspect and have added a bazillion G+ refugees to that. I'll sort out who's what later.

As with G+ Circles, I strongly recommend setting your aspects generally for 1) your reading interest (high/low/medium), maybe another for people who post a lot (voluble), and consider your *posting** Aspects to be specific to groups such as family, friends, co-workers, space alien cats, etc., that you want to reach specifically for a post.

There is no equivalent of Collections or Communities. You can however both hashtag posts and follow a hashtag.

If you follow #GooglePlus on Diaspora / Pluspora, you'll see a lot of the G+ refugee activity, and reconnect faster.
