Hello,

I have been on Lemmy for a while and heard we can federate to Mastadon.

How do I sub or get the feed on my page?

    Thank you for asking this question. I was trying to find some mastadon based communities that do exist using the search on my instance and not seeing them come up. Now I see why. Maybe it’s time to live more on kbin.

    The federation with Mastodon is mostly one-way: We can’t see or comment on Mastodon posts, but Mastodon users can see and comment on Lemmy posts.

    Mastodon’s like Twitter… its posts wouldn’t fit in the Lemmy UI well. Though I hear kbin works well with both Mastodon-style and Lemmy-style posts.

    Mastodon allows you to follow users, which Lemmy doesn’t. So you can follow users on here but there is, currently, no facility to follow users over there. I imagine this will change eventually.
