      What do you mean? Mastadon users can follow lemmy communities to see posts

      Edit: to clarify, Lemmy is not set up to make or view microblog style posts. Therefore we don’t see into that side of the fediverse from Lemmy. However, my understanding is that Mastadon users can follow communities on Lemmy as if they’re a microblog account, with all posts and comments from that community coming in as one steam in chronological order. So compatibility isn’t great over there either. They can also make posts in Lemmy communities by tagging it in their post. Someone please correct me if I’m wrong.
