    The first time you click a Fediverse button on my site, you’ll be asked to enter your home instance — in other words, your own Fediverse server. This can be a self-hosted instance or a platform like Mastodon, Pleroma, and others.

    Once that’s set, clicking on an “Also on” syndicated post link will open the corresponding URL directly inside your own Mastodon instance. From there, you’ll see it as a native Mastodon post, which means you can reply, boost, or favourite it just like any other post in your timeline.

    The same logic applies to the “Fediverse” sidebar widget. It reads the instance you previously saved in your browser’s localStorage and uses it to trigger a remote follow request directly from your own Mastodon account.
