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 #bookmarx 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)
@khird If you use the Favourites feature strictly to save good posts for later access, it will work as Bookmarks, and the same action could be used in any instance.
