[Question] Same domain for all federated services (lemmy.ml)

I’m interested in setting up my own instances for Lemmy, Mastodon, and Matrix.

Can I use the same https://domain.tld for all of them without any subdomains?

For example:
[email protected]
[email protected]
[email protected]

Will this work across all of my self-hosted instances, or do I need to append a subdomain for each, e.g., [email protected]?

Regardless of configuration, you still need to access the instance from mastodon.mydomain.tld or lemmy.mydomain.tld, but you can configure the Mastodon to use @[email protected] as its identifier by setting WEB_DOMAIN to mydomain.tld.
