Do you know if there is a dead simple way to follow mastodon users from a Lemmy android app?
Yes search for the user, example being @cloaker (@ cloaker @ mastodon.social) in your search bar or user search.
This doesn't work for me. On wefwef I can see Zack's account but there's no way to follow or subscribe and it reports 0 posts and 0 comments. If I search your mastodon account I can see a comment but I cannot subscribe or follow. Jerboa returns no results for either.
The PWA has no follow.
Lemmy is about communities and group discussion, following individuals isn't really what it's about.
@[email protected] needs to format their posts and add a Lemmy community to post into this part of the Fediverse. That would help more people get exposed. I asked one person on Mastodon to just change their posts to include an @ to here and they said No, it was like an extra 20 characters and that was too much.
I see. KBin supports both following and microblogs like Mastodon as well as regular Reddit like forum content.
Yeah, kbin is the better platform for integration (at this point). Don't see why Lemmy can't get better though.
It's not hard for Mastodon users to slightly change how they write their posts and it would enter Lemmy seamlessly and be barely noticeable to Mastodon readers.
Title, line break, @ community, line break, body of text, #hashtags.
I suppose it would be good to see support from mast on the issue then - Lemmy wasn't as large until recently so I suppose this will happen eventually.
