Not sure about lemmy, but I'm viewing your post on kbin.social, which does provide this functionality for users both on and outside the instance with the following link (remove the first @ and domain if you're looking at a kbin user):

If you're a kibn user, on your kbin.social account, you can access your notifications in a similar manner:

Fediverse New User Orientation

Welcome to the Fediverse New User Orientation! If you’re just starting out on Fediverse or planning to join in from Reddit, here’s a rundown of what you need to know and how to navigate this new space.

What is Fediverse?

The Fediverse is a network made up of diverse platforms, such as Lemmy, Mastodon, PeerTube, and several others, that use a common protocol known as ActivityPub. This allows for seamless interaction between users across these platforms. With Fediverse, you have the freedom to join any instance (server) that caters to your interests, and you can interact with users from other instances as well.

Lemmy

The Reddit-like federated forum app that runs on ActivityPub within the Fediverse

Lemmy is one of the platforms within the Fediverse. It shares quite a bit similarity with Reddit, hence it has been referred to as the “Reddit of the Fediverse.” It provides users with the opportunity to create communities (like subreddits). The federated forum app runs on ActivityPub, meaning you can follow, comment, and share posts from different Lemmy servers.

Is there possibly a way to have titles above posts instead of below? I have no idea why the post titles are below the posts themselves since, you know, title.

maybe choice of client or UI theme?

titles are above the post in mine.
