Description

Currently, I'm able to subscribe to the local timelines of Mastodon instances which in itself is awesome. However, even though I see interaction icons (for liking, commenting, resharing) on these, it seems I am unable to actually somehow use them. Would it be possible to fix this?😊

Research direction

Start by reproducing the interaction icons on posts in a remote Mastodon timeline and compare them with local timeline interactions. Trace the remote-post interaction entry point to determine why liking, commenting, and resharing cannot be used; done means those actions work for remote timeline posts.
