It depends on the size and traffic on the instance, and how powerful their system is. I know one, which is a very fast one, small userbase but does not enable this, sadly.

We can always ask, as it's a great help.

And -- you can also do a search here, in one Pinafore Tab, logged into Qoto, find the link you need -- then jump into another tab and use it in an instance without full search.

we all do -- The Wise ones are the ones who say there's much they don't know.

@globcoco

The Search here is a delight for an active user -- me for example, lol...

a standard Mastodon feature, but turned off in most places to save system resources.

>> How so, never heard that one before...

I think it's because she is using a new Client, Pinafore, and still getting to know it .

If you find your Topic or Thread in the Local feed, all the sequential posts will show under it.

Also accessible easily from a notification on any of the replies. Expanding into the topic makes it easier to follow indeed.

@Placholdr Wonderful -- the guide in that first link is the very same I used to understand and learn this new place -- I only started here 6 months ago, and there is so much to learn and enjoy.

As well as seedy places, good to know and avoid them. So a guide is great. Any questions, just ask.

@freemo
Some on the FediBlock gang DO block mastodon.social, just check Khyrd's kilometer long list.

Reasoning? poorly moderated, their words.

@resynth1943 @globcoco

@resynth1943

Exactly. And they go around Strutting, feeling self important, while doing destructive work. Despicable.

@globcoco @freemo

@resynth1943

Envious and poisonous people, yeah, I have seen them. The FediBlock hash is a frequent place they post.

@Placholdr Hello, and welcome to Qoto.

Enjoy the network and all it has to offer. If you are new to using Mastodon, there's a good guide here: lifehacker.com/a-beginner-s-gu

We also have another new users guide, posted here : write.tedomum.net/rgx/suggesti

@svmihar Hello and welcome. 😄

Since you are using a CLI client, I am guessing you don't need a new users guide, eh ? 😛

Good to have you here.

hello world, posting from the terminal because it's pretty handy to journal from here!

@globcoco Wonderful!

You are learning so fast, and discovering all the Power Toys, lol. Welcome to Power Users League.

@baschi29 Hash tag seraches -- will diaplay any Toots containing that hash that the local instance already has.

In the case of instances that have server blocks, their searches might not retrieve results we can see here; in some cases, people in there might not ever see our toots here, due to their admin's option of blocking others.

@baschi29 Searching is done locally, in the instance's storage.

Here at Qoto we have Full Word Search enabled -- a great feature, so you can search using a word or two, and retrieve posts including it.

Many instances disallow that, as it takes processor and RAM to deliver. They might only allow hash tag searches, which is way more limited.

@globcoco This topic : toot.cafe/@yann2/1042719822596

If it is here at Qoto let me know -- we can ask our admin to look at and fix it if needed.

@globcoco I had this error before and inquired with Nolan, it was an instance configuration problem.
