Description

In the post dialogue, please consider a second selection next to existing "Post visibility". This could be called "Post federation" and would feature choices of "Local-only {instance name}" or "Federated", and it would only be available to those accounts on instances that support this feature, e.g. Hometown-forked instances.

Research direction

Start by inspecting the post dialogue and how the client currently handles post visibility. Then determine how supported instances expose local-only federation and how account capability affects the UI. Done means supported accounts can choose Local-only or Federated, while unsupported accounts retain the existing behavior.
