What?
Well, I can only speak for myself, I'm not here to follow users but communities.
And if someone wants to follow me I'd see it as kind of annoying for them seeing all the different topics I post and comment instead of something focused.
IMO the ability to see Mastodon interactions in Lemmy and vice-versa is quite annoying since they use the same protocol for different experiences.
Yup. Following a user is creepy as fuck
A lemmy community shows up as a user in mastodon
Mastodon (microblogging, follow users) and Lemmy (forum, follow topics) cater to different kinds of users. I don’t subscribe to personalities, I subscribe to discussion topics, that’s why I’m on lemmy and not mastodon.

Yep! I feel the same way!
Yeah, there's no need for that weird parasocial shit.
That's not a bug, it's a feature. If you want to follow users, use Mastodon or something.
How is this sad, or a story?
Good - thought I was the only one who saw little value in following a person on Lemmy.
I had originally hoped to use my Mastodon account to follow Lemmy communities but the fact that every single comment on a post pops up in my feed made it... just really unusable. Really happy with using #mbin for Lemmy though and keeping my Mastodon and Mbin separate.
https://fedia.io/ handles both
It's mbin, that's what I'm saying...
On the other hand mbin doesn't have apps. I guess people are prioritizing this over micro blogging
What about the app interstellar?

Not great, but "it's working" at least
What I think would be cool is following hashtags from Lemmy, or a.gup.pe groups
