You just add .atom to the web address (often referred to as the "full profile" page in Mastodon UI). So https://some-instance.net/some-user.atom

The full profile page itself also has the usual RSS Auto-Discovery META tags so that most feed readers will accept the profile page address itself and figure out the ATOM feed from that.

The only other twist would be for feed readers to add WebFinger support which would allow them to auto-discover the "full profile" page from the @some-user@some-instance.net style address. I don't think any feed readers have added that yet.
