test rule
don’t mind me, just checking if I can make new lemmy threads from this mastodon instance, does this work?
Hello! We see you! =D
@brown567 perfect summary of my fediverse experience so far
*waves back at you*
how did you do that
Here was the best tutorial I could find for it.
You can create posts in Lemmy communities by tagging the community account
(It should be a public post)
If the community account is tagged with @, it will share the post and the post will also appear in the forum.
For example, this is a post I created from Mastodon in feddit’s #Tischtennis forum: metalhead.club/@caos/112749905… … and this is how it is displayed in Lemmy: feddit.org/post/556495The only thing to note from Mastodon and Akkoma etc. is: The beginning of the post/the first paragraph becomes the title of the forum post, as Mastodon does not have a heading field. (see also: Instructions Creating a post from Mastodon)
So it is best to start the post like this (see image 1):
This is my headline (as descriptive a title as possible)
@community@lemmy-instance
This is the further text, link etc.
if necessary a picture (only in the initial post a picture is transferred from Mastodon to Lemmy, between Lemmy and Friendica all images in answers are transferred in the meantime)hey do you happen to have more info on this? trying to figure out why it doesn’t always work
it seems like a third of the replies get lost between instances and never arrive
No idea. I don’t post from mastodon, so I haven’t explored that function
hehe
Graphic ᵈᵉˢᶦᵍⁿ is my ₚₐₛₛᵢₒₙ
@QuinnyCoded hi can I get a cat pic?

@sunoc cuute :3
Hello from PieFed!
@ElectroLisa yaay it works!!
hello from cyberplace
@onehundredninetysix okay, so now it seems to have desynced for some reason, my comments on lemmy are already +40min behind, waiting for it to catch up
New instance. Who dis?
Yooooooo :D
HELLO MASTODON FRIEND!!!
@happy_wheels hiii blahaj friend!! :3
@hameru friendica checking in!
Hello there
@sunoc oh hello :3
it really didn’t take long for this account to be discovered huh
>:3 rawr
Interesting, so the replies with the “@“ username are from people from Mastodon!
How does it work for my replies on your side ?
@sunoc yes, but I think lemmy also shows the @ username for anyone on a different instance from yours, not necessarily mastodon
for me your replies appear as comments under my mastodon post
They mean in the text body at the start. So like @ilikefootcheese@harvard.edu not in the username section
Always love seeing the telltale sign of mass accs always fun to see
@sorrybookbroke oh mb I see it now, yeah mastodon auto-completes the replies with that, I don’t think it works if I delete the mention
also disappointed that @ilikefootcheese@harvard.edu is not a real account
👋👋👋
No it didn’t worked at all maybe try pressing ctrl shift w
