lackthought OP , 1 year ago interesting, maybe I’ll have to dig around the ActivityPub documentation to see how data is formatted I posted a link to Lemmy (from Lemmy) and now I’m viewing the post from Mastodon to see if I can determine how the data flows the link appears directly in the Mastodon post view but the text I entered on the Lemmy post didn’t show up in Mastodon maybe this would work as a linked post from Mastodon to Lemmy?: TitleOfPost some-link-to-an-external-url @communityname but that may just create a text post with the link as the ‘text’ I guess I need to try it out with a test post or in a test community so I’m not spamming anyone with my testing :)

I posted a link to Lemmy (from Lemmy) and now I’m viewing the post from Mastodon to see if I can determine how the data flows
the link appears directly in the Mastodon post view but the text I entered on the Lemmy post didn’t show up in Mastodon
maybe this would work as a linked post from Mastodon to Lemmy?:
TitleOfPost some-link-to-an-external-url @communityname
but that may just create a text post with the link as the ‘text’
