I think this is how you cross post something. If not, be patient with the old head. I was told you guys might enjoy this glimpse into a simpler time.

      It really doesn’t seem all that long ago

      It doesn’t really. It doesn’t seem that long ago I was tinkering with an Altair, or trying to get a Timex/Sinclair to not crash a minute after the program loaded from the cassette player. I feel like I’m in one of those Star Trek time warps where all the stars are just whizzing by.

  • I dont know how you’d do an actual cross-post on the web interface, but Connect has a button under a post specifically for it, and then it will also show what other comms the post had been cross-posted to when used that way.

    This post isn’t an actual “cross-post” under that feature but I couldn’t tell you how to do it outside of Connect so the cross-posted comms will show on the posts. 🤷‍♂️

        On Mlem, long-press on a post then tap “Share…” -> “Crosspost”
