Hey #Fediverse, is it possible to follow #Lemmy users from #Mastodon? Or only Lemmy communities? Asking for a #FediFriend ;-) cc: @Mastodon @FediTips
Emsquared@7sleepersmusic Although I can see my Feddit.uk account from here. I just can't see any posts i've made or replied to.
@emsquared Yeah, I'm not having much luck either. It would be a nice feature!
@7sleepersmusic I get that i see zero posts. Peertube is like that in that once i subscribe to someone over on peertube I then see new posts from that point and and not before but if i can't find people at all because nobody on my server is following them yet then it gets a tad more frustrating.
@emsquared TBH I still haven't wrapped my head around how it all works! I mostly treat my various Fedi accounts as separate entities, even tho I could probably just use one account for all of them. I guess I just got used to the fragmented world of corporate social media. Old habits die hard!
@7sleepersmusic I know it is confusing. In theory they all use the same protocol (ActivityPub) so can interact but it's a very loose protocol implemented in vary varying ways precisely because it is not a corporate structure and often admins are one man bands but it's what let's Ghost and Flipboard users be seen here. . I mean I can see various Lemmy.World accounts from where I am but that might not be the case on other instances. It is quite the mind boggles which explains why most centralised social media remains more popular as it's easier to grasp even if your privacy and your data is their money pot.
