I mean, there's also Star Trek: The Next Generation, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, Star Trek: .......
I think you accidentally posted to startrek by including the URL in the message. The title here on Lemmy is "#mastodon #fediverse #omgwtf #lemmy", lol
Doh! Oh well, the question stands. Probably some people here with the same issue.
Still pretty cool that you can do that xD
Don't feel bad! You're certainly not the only one that has done it, so you are correct. Haha
I had looked into creating a post on lemmy from mastodon, and I read something that said it couldn't be done. Proceeds to create a post on lemmy... :^S
I guess I was reading outdated info :^D
Lists do seem to work well for organization, but mastodon isn't the best platform for lemmy. It works for limited use, but a dedicated lemmy account would be better.
I would have to agree. It is cool that you can communicate between the two, and for something like posting on someones comment, it works great. Having said that, I also found it is better to have two different accounts, just like you would with Reddit and Twitter.
I would definitely just set up a lemmy account, since despite both using ActivityPub, the experience is fundamentally different between them. Posts -from- Mastodon look slightly weird here, but post -to- Mastodon appear as super boosted.
Yeah I feel like the Lemmy to Mastodon experience is significantly better than the Mastodon to Lemmy experience. I hope Mastodon is able to implement a new feature to make that less awful for Mastodon users.
Mastodon is fundamentally different than Lemmy, despite sharing the ActivityPub protocol. I think you’ll end up getting every post and comment as a separate Mastodon post, which yes, would not be easy to manage. I would recommend unfollowing in Mastodon and creating an account on a lemmy or kbin instance.
@MentallyExhausted @lxskllr That is the case. You could mitigate it by using lists and avoiding the home timeline, though.
