I don’t think that’s true.

Yes they both use ActivityPub to broadcast interactions to other instances.

Here’s an example of posting from Mastodon to Lemmy.

Neat! Can you do it the other way around?

That’s the part I don’t know. Would need some experimentation.

You can mention Mastodon users, but you can’t follow them from Lemmy.

You can follow Lemmy communities and users from Mastodon but I don’t think you can do it the other way around. Mastodon does not have communities and Lemmy will not let you follow users as far as I know.

Most instances aren’t set up for it. If you want to federate to both lemmy and madtadon, Kbin IS set up to work with both.

gvasco ,

Thanks for the tip! I might just create a kbin account for this purpose.

HandwovenConsensus OP ,

Ah, alright. Might have to check it out.
