Comment on Any way to force federation of an existing post from a different instance?

Yes. Grab the home instance URL of a post or comment you want to reply to, and pop that into search.
The server should go fetch that thing in the same way it does new communities, and pop it up as a result and let you open it and then interact with it.

Thank you, that worked!
I was trying it again trying to find and join a different/c, but apparently this trick only works with the URLs of posts, not the URLs of /c’s

I should work with communities, too. And user accounts.
Communities might take a really long time tho before the result shows up, as they can take minutes to bring over.
