A fun Mastodon thing I don’t think people realise - you can interact with Reddit style services like Lemmy without leaving Mastodon as it’s part of the Fediverse.
Eg I follow the @starfield community by following that user, new posts automatically appear in Mastodon feed, I can upvote by favouriting, and I view and reply to comments in the thread.
I’ve never signed up for Lemmy, here’s me posting from Ivory app via Mastodon.
And guess what, you just posted to the starfield community by mentioning it. Hello from Lemmy!
@MentalEdge ooops
Shame nothing works the other way around yet. The only option Lemmy seems to give is to DM a mastodon account & even that doesn’t seem to work (at least it didn’t for me).
@GossiTheDog @starfield unfortunately the interaction leaves a lot to be desired still. Hopefully lemmy and mast will learn to play nicer with each other in the future.
@GossiTheDog @starfield Cool!!! I learned something new about the fediverse today.
