@Gargron @scott recent enough Mastodon also pops an OPEN link to the thing you just posted after posting, in the bottom left (at least if you're using the multicolumn layout). After that, you can just keep the started thread open and reply to the last post in it as you go.
@CathyBikesBook I've settled on Tusky. There's also alternative web frontends that can be used as PWAs like Phanpy that are quite interesting feature wise
@stefano thanks. I'm pragmatic about levels of engagement here and elsewhere. Looking at other instances' local live feeds, in isolation, was … erm … I'm not sure how to describe the overall experience, but it was worth it.
@FediTips Sorry, but the usefulness is quite limited if the lists contain of accounts.The same account can post cat pictures and depressing news. That's why I don't use them.
@shironeko I see what you mean. I guess you can put it that way. So all the servers that respect reply controls will "ignore" the reply and not display it, making it basically invisible to the original poster and pretty much all their followers.Outdated servers and servers set up to purposefully ignore reply controls can be blocked.Seems like a pretty good solution.
@aleciabatson @stefano Hi, if you could add Torbay please, that would be really appreciated. In the meantime, I have added a link to my Fediverse page on my website, https://zleap.net/fediverseHope this helps and thanks againPaul
