@ZWho63 Can I comment lemmy posts from mastodon?
My findings so far:
- Can I edit it? (Yes I can)
- Pictures attached on mastodon don't show up on lemmy.
- Some replies don't show up on lemmy.ml, but visible on fosstodon.org and https://pawb.social.
- Link to pawb.social is not linkified without https:// prefix.
An example of two attached screenshots that are visible only on fosstodon: https://fosstodon.org/@abcdw/111152102681928222
So on Mastadon do you see Lemmy posts as the Mastadon equivalent of a Tweet?
I never see posts and comments from Mastadon users on Lemmy even though I believe it's more popular so you would expect there to be more or at least a similar number as from Lemmy users. I think your comment is only the second I've seen from Mastadon users.
Like the other reply says, the user tag of the last Mastadon user I saw was [name]@null, though yours is fine for me now. Also odd that your attached images don't show even though Lemmy has that feature too. Maybe these issues will be ironed out soon
@Rambi Yes, you can see how it looks here:

It seems attaching pictures doesn't work both ways (I don't see attached pictures from lemmy user in mastodon too).
Huh interesting. So I guess replies appear in order of when they were made and not weighted based on upvotes, seen as there appears to be no equivent on Mastodon? Quite cool (and a bit confusing) how Activity Pub is stitching everything together. I wish I could see more content from Mastodon show up in Lemmy, not sure how that would work with communities though.
Also, I notice the web version of Mastodon has a really nice UI
