Steps to reproduce

  1. Find a post on the Fediverse that you find interesting. You may find it from browsing a specific instance on the web, or following a link in an article.
  2. Copy the post's URL, and paste it in the search field in the Friends page
  3. You get the option to Boost that post.
  4. Upon boosting, the friends/?boost= request fails because that post doesn't exist. In the example below, it triggered a 302 to a Friends' page, where it didn't find that specific post because it wasn't from that friend (it was boosted by that friend, however):

Would there be a way to fetch the post and boost it, even if it is not stored locally yet?

This is actually the idea. When I just tried it, it indeed didn't work the first time. But when I tried again it did, redirecting me to a /friends/external/<cached post id> URL. Could you try again? Possibly I just need to fix this to work on first try.

I'm afraid it still doesn't work for me, even with your fix. Regardless of the number of times I try, I always get redirected to that 404.

Thanks for testing! Do you have a friend (should be autocreated) external at /friends/external/?

Yes I do. 👍

Right now that page seems to list a mix of posts I boosted and replies to some of my posts.
