If Pixelfed can reach 186k monthly active users in a week thanks to IG users, than I'm really not sure how tech savvy that person is indeed

A huge barrier for some is picking the instance and figuring which community they should follow.

"Lemmy has 42k monthly active users

Feel free if you have any questions"

Why those two? https://lemmy.world/comment/14616442

I have a question.

How, if possible, can I log in to say, discuss.online above, with this account.

Or do I need to make a second account over there.

I am using the jerboa app at the moment if that helps.

Also, related, is there a way to just, use my Mastodon account, and drop this one completely?

You can't log in from your lemmy.world account, but you can interact with it through lemmy.world as if you had an account there.

You can view/comment/vote on all of the content there while logged into lemmy.world. As an example, you should be able to click this [email protected] and participate there. or [email protected].

I am not a fan of "microblogging", so I am not 100% certain. I have seen a lot of posts/comments from Mastodon on lemmy instances, they are the people using hashtags.

Kbin and Mbin are Lemmy-like systems that also hooks into microblogging much easier, so you might be able to do a one account thing there much easier.

Again, not certain because microblogging is not my jam.

It seems you can't interact using Mastodon, but you can follow Lemmy with Mastodon. Mostly just wasn't sure because in some ways the Fediverse seems more connected and more into the idea of "follow everywhere", but also it seems like its not quite at "one account everywhere."

You can interact with Discuss.online communities clicking this kind of links: [email protected]

Another example: [email protected]

A community with a few guides: [email protected]

You can't use a Mastodon account to log in to a Lemmy instance.
