@fediverse posting this from mastodon. It’s amazing if this works!
Edit: it worked! Showed up in my Lemmy feed.
Hello from feddit.uk!
Yep! It should work in reverse too!
I wonder if the first days of SMTP were like this—people sending emails to each other in amazement that messages could reach people on other servers.
How’d you do that?!
@Squiglet just the power of the fediverse, I guess. Also posting this reply from mastodon.
To post from Mastodont to lemmy you just need to use “@” followed by community name?
@Squiglet @Xylight Pretty much, although you’ll want to differentiate between @fediverse@lemmy.world and other instances (i.e. @fediverse@lemmy.ml)
Interesting that I can reply to you without “@”. Forgive my ignorance, I never used Twitter or Mastodon.
@Squiglet Neither have I until now😂. Was a redditor for 10 years until the API change and never could get into Twitter.
I’m assuming the @ from Mastodon is just because it’s the default way for it to display in posts. Lemmy uses the @ for replies but doesn’t display it in the comment.
pretty much like /u/ on reddit
@ always looked wierd to me tho, it’s more of a surname if that makes sense
Oh wow, it actually works!
It’s wild that you can communicate like this across websites
Across systems even. A front page that looks like half content aggregation, half microblogging, that’s mad. That’s awesome!
Hello from mander.xyz! We see you!
