Help!
My instance: ohai.social
I see a post that "crossposts/embeds/boosts" another post
https://ohai.social/@SesameSquirrel@mastodon.social/114849915853607432
If I click on the embed, it loads on the OP's instance
E.g. https://mastodon.social/@MatthewTitus88/114848443741505870
I can't star/reply etc to OP
How do I get to see the OP via *my* instance so that I can interact with it? (I tried URL hacking mastodon.social to ohai.social but that didn't work, "not found" error)

#Mastodon Experts: Why do some URLs show thumbnail previews, and some do not? For example, if I share a YouTube link, my post shows a generic YouTube gray thumbnail. On other userโs posts, sometimes itโs literally just the URL text at the bottom of their posts, without any thumbnail. Finally, on other userโs posts, there is a thumbnail preview. What causes this?
Thanks in advance!
How come some images won't load from other Mastodon instances?

Question: Sometimes, when I post a link on here, it shows a preview (like on Twitter/X) & other times it doesn't ... what am I doing wrong? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!! ๐ซ

Getting lots of new followers today! Some of that may be because you guys are seeing my posts on #Twitter (Sorry, not Twitter, "X" ๐โ). Glad you decided to follow me here - #WelcomeToMastodon! This place may seem a little confusing at first, but I think you'll get the hang of it pretty quickly. Just a couple important things to keep in mind: - There's no algorithm here. You can't always see who follows whom. You can't see other people's likes. That's not how discovery works here. - Directly search for people you want to find. Avoid accounts with stuff like "bird.makeup" in the name; they're not real and are just automated mirrors of Twitter accounts, often without the account holder's consent. - Look at the "Explore" page. Look at "Live Feeds" and check out "Local," "Remote," and "All" - you'll see lots of content there and find people to follow that way! - Remember that you can follow hashtags here just like you follow users! - On that note, tag your stuff with hashtags. They're your best friend here when it comes to discoverability. - Fill out your profile (*especially* with a profile picture) as quickly as possible so your posts draw people's eyes. - Make an #Introduction post so people know about you! (You can pin it, too!) - Use content warnings liberally! Unlike on Twitter, you are *never* going to be penalized by an algorithm here for posting sensitive/NSFW content or links. Just make sure you follow the rules of your instance! If in doubt, put a CW on it. It's not going to affect your visibility in people's timelines! If there's something you're not sure about, ask someone! Have a great time here - I think you'll find this place a breath of fresh air compared to Twitter!
