You can access lemmy and kbin instances from mastadon. But the format doesn't work so well I think. I'm not sure how far it goes and how viable it is though. I'm not on mastadon. But once you have an account on one of the threadiverse instances, defederation aside the same content should be available. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Zagorath@aussie.zone 4 points 3 years ago Yeah I think the main actually viable use case for the fact that Lemmy and Mastodon can cross-interact is just when a Mastodon user gets @mentioned on Lemmy and is able to reply to it from there. And vice versa. You don't want to actually be browsing Lemmy from Mastodon. permalink fedilink source parent [+] flyaway1359@lemmy.world 2 points 3 years ago* (last edited 3 years ago) [deleted] permalink fedilink source parent [–] Uggro@lemmy.world 4 points 3 years ago (1 child) From my understanding, yes. You can also follow Lemmy communities on mastodon and have their posts show up in your feed. @fediverse@lemmy.world I believe that’s the right format? Someone will undoubtedly correct me if I’m wrong. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] thejoker8814@lemmy.world 4 points 3 years ago* (last edited 3 years ago) Yes, you can. See my post I made on lemmy.world - showing up in the feed of @fediverse@lemmy.world using my mastodon.social account (in the mastodon app). For that to work you have to have the community address and look for it via the search on the mastodon instance. Screenshot is made in the mastodon instance. permalink fedilink source parent
