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.

@asmodai New here so this is probably a stupid question but now do you “bookmark” posts on Mastodon? Been looking and can’t find an option

@JJBadger Not stupid at all, I'm afraid it very much depends on your client though.

On Tusky (Android), every post has a bookmark icon underneath it (🔖). Similarly with the Mastodon advanced web UI.

What are you using?

@asmodai Ah I see. I’m using the Mastodon app on iOS.

@JJBadger @asmodai it’s not the best. Metatext has many more features, including the essential ability to CW

@KoraunuiPakeha @JJBadger @asmodai not the most computer literate individual here. I have a iPhone. Can I ask what’s my best app to use?

@lminn @KoraunuiPakeha @JJBadger @asmodai I'm really enjoying Tusky on Android. I assume it's also for iOS, but I don't know for sure.
