(18,621 posts)2. a quick test, comment and thank you to Elad
It seems I have to actually go to the home server to get a URL
Those URLs don't seem to be available on my local server so I had to go to the home server of the toot I want to link.
https://cville.online/@charlotteclymer@mastodon.social/109557453241843748
works if you click it. It goes to mastodon.social unless I'm logged in to cville.online and then goes there.
I went to the server mastodon.social, searched and found the toot.
This is good.

That's great. Wonder if mastodon will someday become the plaything of a twit (twoot).

Mastodon has been a great experience. You do not know what you are missing Ms. Toad.
