Sticky federated posts

Is there a way to pin or make sticky a post from a federated account? My community is local to piefed.social but I would like to pin a post from a user on a different instance.

Ah I see you are moderating https://piefed.social/c/50501.

I'll add this feature by the end of the weekend. It'll be on the 3 dots menu on every post.

Fantastic! This will be really useful for delegation in communities like mine.

It's done already :)

If you're not already aware, the 'shared' code part for this is already done, so it should be that the 3 dots menu entry just has to call this function with (post_id, True / False, 1) for the logic / modlog / federation stuff.

Oh, yes. That made it easy, thanks!

Sorry, you can only pin your own posts.

Interesting idea, though! I'll add it to the work queue.
