#Mastodon users, I know you don't have quote-shares (boosts?) yet, but please include a link to the original toot to your "Last Boost" posts, otherwise the context vanishes once your commentary is boosted outside of your followers' circle.

I just spent 10 solid minutes scrolling back someone's timeline to find their day-old boost they didn't link to in a "Last Boost" post that was shared with me just this morning.

Thank you. 🙏

About the post I just boosted. I just want to make sure I understood what we're supposed to do, so here it is https://friendica.mrpetovan.com/display/735a2029-1964-e740-467d-d64679170682

@gullfot Yes, thank you! Although you posted it as a reply to my post, so there was already a reference to it. I appreciate the effort though!

hmm, that's strange! I first boosted it, and then made a new regular post just adding the link to your post. Not sure why it appears as a reply?

@gullfot I wouldn't be able to tell you, but it looks consistent both on your system and on mine.
