    @paulpod I haven’t used either but people seem to use crossposter.masto.donte.com.br or moa.party . I find reposting retweets onto Mastodon problematic myself (they appear as normal toots, not boosts).

    @paulpod @Beko @coopuk Thanks 🙏🏻 Well our £500 Bosch only lasted five years of very light use so we thought we’d try something half the price. And thought we’d try Co-op now they’re all digitalised but, well.
