Many are turning to Lemmy as a viable Reddit alternative. Here is how to use your existing Mastodon account with Lemmy.

    Only I’m using kbin, not lemmy. Kbin and lemmy handle federation differently, so we’ll have to wait and see when someone on lemmy interacts.

        Plus I can follow all of you from all those instances, over on pixelfed (the Instagram analogue), thought I have zero idea how things federate in that direction as I haven’t used pixelfed much yet.

        Dozens of websites all speaking one language behind the scenes!

            Ok straight up how did you comment from it? I tried with mine before making my comment (cause I was gonna do it from pixelfed like you, but I couldn’t figure out in the UI how to get to this convo, just a person.

            Edit: I literally just made an account last night lol

              I had to paste a link to your comment in the search bar of my pixelfed instance. I think pixelfed UI isn’t as well integrated into the fediverse as other platforms, it takes a bit of mucking around to make it play nicely.

                @[email protected] @GeekFTW hmm… pixelfed doesn’t seem to be pushing the updates out, or if it does, there is a long delay. I had to get kbin to pull those couple of comments from my pixelfed instance. I don’t use pixelfed very much, there could also be something broken in my setup.

                  When I paste the link to a comment into pixelfed it just sits and spins on its thumb so things could just be a bit gimpy.

                    @GeekFTW @[email protected] I’m also running an older pixelfed release – I should probably update it, but it’s also possible the newest release may introduce compatibility problems with kbin and/or lemmy
