~ HOW TO FIND COOL POSTS AND BOOST THEM INTO YOUR SMALLER INSTANCE ~
1) Go to https://mastodon.social/tags/YOURTAGHERE (substitute in your tag at the end there).
2) Scroll 'til you find a good one, and right-click the timestamp, and click "Copy link address".
3) Head back to your own instance, paste that URL you just copied into the search box, and press enter.
4) BOOST!
@linhares You're welcome, happy to help! :)
@cassolotl can I use click+drag for this? why not?
@martensitingale I don't know! What are you clicking and dragging?
@cassolotl it would be nice if I could just click+drag the fav or boost icon to the tab with the mastodon web interface where I want to fav or boost it
@martensitingale Ahhh that'd be coooool! :) Are you Github-savvy? You could put it on the issue list as a feature request! https://github.com/tootsuite/mastodon/issues
@martensitingale (If you're not I can put it on there for you, but I don't want to steal your thunder!)
@cassolotl I have a GH acct but would love if you could take the time <3
@martensitingale Sure, what's your Github username so I can tag you?
@cassolotl @martensitingale@github.com
@martensitingale https://github.com/tootsuite/mastodon/issues/916#issuecomment-379044625 I added it to a relevant feature request. :)
@cassolotl This is really good info! Thank you! 👏 👏
