Wait, so, #Lemmy has no ability to just fetch a random non-Lemmy post by URL?
Nope, Lemmy's search doesn't work by URL. I can put in search terms to search across the federation, or I can do [email protected] (example [email protected] ) to search for an instance. I imagine I could search anything that's covered as a "Group" under ActivityPub protocol, but Mastodon doesn't really use those and I don't know any other AP service that does.
Not that I know of. Unless the content fits into the post-comment-reply structure, it doesn’t come here. DMs might be a different story all together, but they’re not a great feature over the fediverse anyway.
