I don’t get the number of people bitching in the comments here.
Anything that potentially grows Mastodon and Lemmy is good.

It is even more annoying on Lemmy clients that show every link in a comment at the bottom of the comment in easy to tap boxes. This is great for 1 or 2, but every mastodon post has everyone @ing everyone else.
I just downvote it all, block the users, and move on. That shit is annoying.
Don’t downvote, it’s not on purpose, just the limitations of their platform
They can’t see the downvotes in Mastodon anyway, if I’m not mistaken.
(Assuming you meant to say don’t downvote)
oh, yeah, that is what I meant, but it does lower it in ranking here, even if it’s a good comment. They’re not that common, don’t let them bother you
Yeah I don’t do it personally. But I also don’t begrudge people for downvoting if they find the formatting annoying. The reality is that Mastodon and Lemmy simply don’t play nice together atm, and that’s a user experience issue that needs to be resolved anyway.
Some of us are willing to put up with the UX annoyances to see what the Mastodon users have to contribute, while others simply don’t have the patience to deal with the hassle. The solution is to fix the integration so Mastdon users can post seamlessly without people even noticing they’re using a different platform.
When I first tried to check out the exodus this idea totally confused me and nearly made me drop the whole fediverse idea.
All this talk about using mastadon account on lemmy IS BULLSHIT. Sorry but - reading about mastadon account etc made it sound like lemmy is just another mastadon instance. Or another “perspective” on the same underlying data. It kind of works but it’s absolutely confusing and frustrating to try to do this. Just make a new lemmy account - which I was trying to avoid because I thought with federation I should be able to move freely between instances.
It would be nice to merge these kinds of “social media modes”. I believe reddit tried to do something similar with following users etc. But it’s not there yet and only hampers adoption to advertise this.
I know people will hate the idea, but these federates services need an SSO somehow.
Or a better “landing page” like an app that can manage multiple instances easily. Or merge multiple communities from different instances. But running in my browser. I’m sure this is in the works with the other lemmy clients or self hosting.
No pun intended, it’s more like federated identity (hope I’m not being pedantic)
But I’m with you. I’m the weirdo who likes their data together and uniformly vulnerable lol
haven’t tried it but couldn’t you technically login to a lemmy-app with your mastodon-account?
Maybe with an advanced lemmy app, but from the website it doesn’t work from my experience. Or is incredibly clumsy.
wiggle your trunk if you can read this…
I’m on Kbin, what should I wiggle?
your kaboose, of course
Instructions unclear. Trunk stuck in the keyboard.
Nice post.
Actually after noticing the general user profile here, I plan another exodus to some place else.
Nice tutorial
