I’m starting to find some of the cooler aspects of the wider fediverse.
For instance, Lemmy is a Reddit clone that is picking up some migration after the recent hooha or at Reddit.
The cool thing is that it’s federated (same as mastodon, different instances and everything).
This means that you can subscribe to any community on Lemmy, for instance
https://lemmy.world/c/showerthoughts
through its fediverse address, right here on your mastodon instance:
Yup, although the downside is that your posting style definitely shows off that you’re a Mastodon user.
Your use of the @ tag, the hashtag are all markers of a more Twitter-like user experience, and it makes you post stand out somewhat oddly for those using one of the lemmy instances. Either way, it’s really neat to be able to cross between those, since I vastly prefer the Lemmy UX as opposed to Mastodon’s, but I can still get a Mastodon’s content!
