Small #FediTip: if you encounter a message or thread that is in any way useful to you, bookmark it straight away.

Since the fediverse doesn't have full text searches, it will be very difficult to find that particular thing again a few days later. Especially if you cannot remember who posted it or it has no hashtags.

Periodically review your bookmarks to do something with them and you should be set.

Just to add: the official Mastodon app does not have the bookmark feature in their current version. The work has been done, but it needs a release.

@asmodai thank you - I was feeling stupid because I couldn’t see how to bookmark. Should I be using a different app?

@runsamok If it's a feature you think you'd use, it would be worth it, yes. You could always switch back. The client is only a view on your data on the instance.

Tusky on Android, Toot! and Metatext on iOS at least support it at the moment.
