Ok, but does clicking on a public post open up all the unlisted posts too? That's what I'm not clear about. I'm not sure exactly how unlisted works.

@feditips
So, if you set the subsequent posts to unlisted, and someone from the public clicks on the first post, they will see the whole thread?

Also, I type it up in Mastodon until I near the limit, then copy to Notepad, then ditto for 2nd post, etc., then when I'm at the end I can add the right numbering (e.g. 1/9), and copy them from Notepad back to Mastodon and post them. This also helps with getting the right char count for each, cos of things like URLs only counting for 23 chars, etc.

@Joe_Hill @feditips
I reply to each post - i.e. post 3 is a reply to post 2 - and in the Mastodon web interface clicking on the first post opens up the whole thread.

@Joe_Hill @feditips
Clarification, in fact clicking on ANY post in the thread opens up the whole thread.

@feditips @william_1844
So for example, first screenshot is what I see boosted to my Mastodon feed from following a Kbin magazine, and in the post if I click on the link it takes me to the original post (but separate login needed, but pixelfed supports using your Mastodon account, once you have gone through the set-up for that).

@feditips @william_1844
P.S. I also get all the text in my Maston feed, but clicking on that gives me the link to click on for the original content.

@feditips @william_1844
Hey @phocks I think you're on pixelfed too? Have you tried this thing with using your Mastodon account to sign-in to pixelfed?

@feditips @william_1844
Yeah, that was from this end, but then the article says that if you go to the other end you have the more appropiate UI for interacting with the content (in the case of Lemmy it's threading, in the case of peertube it'd be the various play controls, etc.), but also, I think(?) you can receive your Mastodon content there, in your feed there.

@william_1844 @feditips
Yeah, so the reason I ask is because I saw a thing even longer ago (I think from Feditips?) about how you can get for example #Lemmy posts in your Mastodon account, but if you go to Lemmy itself then you have a more appropriate front-end, where in this case you would have a better threading experience, etc., so I was wondering which of them also support this pixelfed feature.

@feditips
Right, but who else supports that? I'm sure I saw a list of other services that did the same thing.

So, I remember a while ago seeing a list of services that support signing in with your #Mastodon account such as #pixelfed but having trouble finding that again (I'm sure there was more than just pixelfed) - anyone know where such a list is? @feditips ?

@feditips
Right, but this hiding boosts but seeing their original posts, would this hide a boost of one of their original posts? e.g. you have something coming up on Saturday, which you post about on Monday, and then you boost your Monday post on Wednesday, would that Wednesday boost of your original Monday post show up? i.e. I'm not sure if this feature is hiding all boosts, or only boosts of other people's content (since it's a boost of their own post)

@feditips
Ok, so here's an edge case. Sometimes people boost their own original posts to cover different time-zones, and later in the week month as a reminder, etc. - will it hide the boost of the original post? 🙂

@feditips
Me 🙂
FYI I boosted it

@paul @feditips @gytis
Confirming your underscored hashtag works for me in the web UI. i.e. I can click on it and get search results for it. Of course, your post is the only one to have used that hashtag, but still 🙂

@paul @feditips @gytis
I'm not seeing anything for those other than your post, so maybe doesn't work so well after all.

Hey #Mathematics people. Do you want to be able to follow all the different #Math tags in the one #Maths column? Here's how! (with thanks to @tokyo_0 for telling me where to find this setting)

1. Go to preferences

@feditips
Not sure if you've covered this before? If so I must've missed it, otherwise here is something for you to cover 🙂

@feditips
Yeah I think the notifications are cool, but the bell icon which I click on to see them never shows that there are any (I can only see them in my Windows notifications). Am I missing a setting somewhere, or that functionality isn't there yet, or...? My preference would be to see them there and switch off the browser notifications (if/when that's possible).
