I applied https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ansible/pull/114 to lemmy.kde.social, this should fix some federation bug and I can now follow this community with my Mastodon account by searching for @kde@lemmy.kde.social
Oh, how weird lol. The Lemmy UX definitely doesn’t fit on Mastodon, now this “community account” as it appears on Mastodon just boosts every post made in the community, without context to the exact post it seems.
It is nice to be able to boost or favorite individual comments though!
@PureTryOut @carlschwan@lemmy.kde.social Yes it’s a bit weird but the other way is pretty nice, if I ping the kde community account it will create a new post on the lemmy instance and also I can reply to your lemmy post with my mastodon account :)
@carlschwan@floss.social @PureTryOut @carlschwan@lemmy.kde.social Yeah I can respond with my Mastodon account, /hello 👋
That part is definitely cool, but it even more so makes me wish I could just use one account (this one) for the entire fediverse, no matter what UX I’d like.
@carlschwan And the Mastodon habit of naming everyone in the thread again is also weird on Lemmy 🙈
Also I can’t use the direct link in the Mastodon search as it’ll return “Searching posts by their content is not enabled on this Mastodon server.”, so I have to find Lemmy posts by looking through _all_ posts, top posts and replies, in the community instead.
@carlschwan Hmm so that post actually doesn’t appear on Lemmy any more, maybe because I removed the extra mentions including the Lemmy ones?
(ah it did appear after I mentinoed the Lemmy account in this post)
Can confirm that now it is visible in kbin
