Welcome!

Can you imagine, years ago how the internet was before? We know Facebook, Twitter, Tiktok, Youtube. We knew blogger, Tumblr, Skyrock... and long before, it was the forum era as phpBB..and mail-lists.

And now with ActivityPub, we are reshaping the web, and achieving much with lots of freedom. So thank you all, and welcome 🀟😁

I used to say "Welcome to Lemmy" to new joiners, but nowadays quite a few of them join Piefed instance, having a generic term is easier

You can't follow Mastodon users from Lemmy or Piefed, using "Fedivers" seems too generic

Except that, apparently you can? A recent post I made on Lemmy had replies from Mastodon accounts afaict

Interacting with Lemmy threads from Mastodon is easy, the inverse not so much

Each threadiverse community is visible as a single user in Mastodon. All the comments come into one pile, not organized into clear threads. It's a very rudimentary support. But yeah, you can join a threadiverse conversation from Mastodon, but you cannot share any Mastodon content in threadiverse.

From within Lemmy, there is zero possibility to utter anything on Mastodon, except as a reply to a message a Mastodon user has made in a threadiverse community.

It's actually very easy checking how this conversation looks from within Mastodon! Just go to any Mastodon instance (such as http://mastodontti.fi/ ) with your web browser, click the search tool and search for a "user" called @fediverse@piefed.social .

NodeBB too, wow ! And fell free to present NodeBB here. ☺️

Lemmy and Mastodon can interact (yay federation!) but you can't follow microblog users from Lemmy.

Up until recently, communities couldn't follow other communities, because it's just not a "thing" Lemmy or Piefed do. Users follow communities, yeah?

Except NodeBB tries to have communities follow communities. :)
