~ HOW TO INTERACT WITH A TOOT THAT HASN'T REACHED YOUR INSTANCE YET ~
(because it's a question I see a lot from new users)
1) Right-click on the timestamp to copy the toot's URL or open it in a new tab.
2) Paste the URL of the toot into the search bar in the Mastodon web UI, then press enter.
3) The toot will appear in the search results and you can boost or reply from there.

@a_breakin_glass Hmmm, dunno, lemme go poke it and find out...
@a_breakin_glass Looks like it's exactly the same - get the post's URL from the timestamp, and then search it in the Mastodon web UI search box. :)
@cassolotl honestly previously I'd just pasted mastodon toot ids into the "statuses" url
@a_breakin_glass Whatever works! :)
@cassolotl YES!!! Thank you a lot for this tip!!!
@TritTriton No problem! :)
@cassolotl I wonder if they should make reply etc. icons on it that use the app protocol like they changed the remote follow to do. 🤔
@InspectorCaracal That sounds like it would be pretty good, yeah!
@cassolotl seems like there should be an easier way to do this
@cassolotl how to do this with GS etc posts?
