@youshouldknow YSK that you can post to Lemmy from Mastodon, and Mastodon users can interact in Lemmy threads. This is a Mastodon account.

Seems like there’s a new wave of Lemmy users, thought they may find that interesting! It can also work with other Fediverse software as well. It’s all interconnectable. It’s not perfect and there’s some quirks due to Lemmy being a forum and Mastodon being a microblog. But you can ping Mastodon users in threads, and they can reply seamlessly.

    Does this mean lemmy users can’t have the same name as communities? I’d just never noticed.

      Actually in Lemmy you can. And yes it can cause issues. Some software handles this but it apparently (used to? Still does?) causes issues with Mastodon.
