QOTO.org new January 2020 Features Added - 2 - Bookmarks.

A much desired feature in Mastodon (which is already present and used in GlitchSoc instances) is to have "Bookmarks".

- a way to save the location of important content; your own, for reference and reuse, or someone else's neat, relevant post.

- Mastodon has the "Favourites" (thank you Eugen for the UK spelling!) which could theoretically do;

- but which is most commonly used as a "Like" button, I seen your post, thanks buddy, etc.

So we didn't have any good way to keep track of neat posts other than :

- maybe using a special hashtag; like @Full_marx 's ingenious idea.

- or laboriously copying the Toot URL and pasting it into a text file.

Fear not -- Like the GS elite, we now have Bookmarks in our instance. How to use them?

- Add a bookmark for any Toot, reply, etc - by simply selecting the little flag icon under it. (screenshot #1)

Access that Bookmark via the "Bookmarks" List in the right side panel of your Webclient (or somewhere else in a mobile client, it could vary.). (screenshot #2)

And just to show, this is what it looks like (identical) in a GlitchSoc instance.
