@asklemmy

Can anybody see this?

Just testing from mastodon to see if my shriveled brain can understand how this works.

FYI, for future tests... there's https://lemmy.ml/c/test. It would be pretty irritating if this discussion community got flooded with test posts.

I thought it might have been a schooner.

I believe it's the text under the title of the post that reads [@asklemmy

I think this user submitted this post from Mastodon. Which is so neat!

Helloooo. I can see the post but I dunno if you can set a title for it. Right now the title is "@asklemmy"

@simple Hey! Cool so it worked, kinda. Unless I stuffed it up somehow and there actually is a way to set a title from mastodon.

It looks like the title of the post might just be the first line of the toot.

I don't know if this comment will arrive either, I set up my lemmy instance yesterday.

Yeah, I found an old lemmy thread that basically said as much. What’s weird is I can see this reply on my lemmy instance but it didn’t show up as a reply on the account I posted from. Maybe because it wasn’t a direct mention with ‘@‘?

Likely the case, but it could be my instance not federating with Mastodon properly.

I just setup my own instance. Can you see my comment?

Yeah I can see it. I had no clue that I could see posts made on a Mastodon instance on Lemmy.

Reply from kbin.social

interesting seeing the way kbin-"magazines" are @'d here, I guess that's how they end up in the 'microblog' section of "@test@lemmy.ml"

Fediverse is weird, gonna take a minute to wrap my head around.

So now... HOW did you do it? And is there a way to join lemmy communities from your mastodon account, or are the different types of accounts still fairly separated?

fox 3 points 3 years ago

@Shdwdrgn So all I did to join asklemmy was search ‘asklemmy@lemmy.ml’ on mastodon and follow. Then to post I just mentioned asklemmy and wrote the post. I hit return after the mention so that might be why there’s no title.

I found that some replies did not make it to my masto account and I’m not sure why really...

Ah ok, I saw the comments about the first line title but wasn't sure what was meant there, this makes more sense. But yeah it sounds like, at least for now, it's best to use the appropriate web interface for each instance rather than trying to clump everything together. We might actually get there some day though!

Agreed. It’s definitely been helpful messing around with both accounts and seeing for myself how the interactions work.

i can see it from kbin.social. They call it a "Microblog" here. Not sure what this is

nightauthor 1 point 3 years ago

@Starfish

Appears that microblog is referring to mastodon content (twitter-like fediverse program). kbin seems to put relevant (unknown mechanism) mastodon content under the microblog tab of a "magazine" (subreddit analog)

@fox

I can see it on kbin.social when browsing asklemmy@lemmy.ml, it displays on the "microblog' tab.
I think kbin works for this better than lemmy.
