I’m confused about how I can link Mastodon and Lemmy sites, say. I have an account on Fosstodon. Can I use it to access and post to https://beehaw.org/c/programming for example? I can follow @programming but that’s not the same thing? The beehaw site says to search for !programming@beehaw.org but this returns nothing (with the ! prefix) on fosstodon. Am I missing something? #lemmy #fediverse #beehaw
This is a situation where you CAN technically do this, but I really wouldn’t recommend it. I have separate lemmy and mastodon accounts because accessing lemmy from mastodon is an awful experience.
Yeah, this. My mastodon timeline became quite unreadable, just a flood of lemmy links, if you follow a more active community.
How well would the converse fly? i.e. Mastodon accounts in a Lemmy timeline.
I mean, if you don’t mind a spammy timeline then it would work just fine. I guess you can try to set up some lists and stuff to manage it.
