Not possible. Try Mastodon for that.

Corr OP ,

That’s great. Thanks a bunch. That’s what I was thinking but glad to get clarification

Corr OP ,

That does seem to be the case. That makes a fair amount of sense. Thanks for the extra input :)

ActivityPub protocol makes it possible for them to connect to each other, but each software needs to code the support for each service and like you said they have various mediums, so it doesn’t always make sesne.

Just FYI for anyone new to the Fediverse, you can use any Mastodon app to follow lemmy users’ comments. For example, you can search for @BrikoX or @lightsecond to follow our comments on lemmy from Mastodon.

You can follow the submissions via an RSS feed.

For example, if you use the link Https://lemm.ee/feeds/u/Corr.xml?sort=New, all your previous posts will be displayed.

Instead of lemm.ee you need to specify the instance where the user in question is registered. And instead of Corr you have to enter the username. For example https://discuss.tchncs.de/feeds/u/fryboyter.xml?sort=New. That would be in this case my contributions.

That’s helpful, thank you. Sorry to bother with a follow up question, but what do I do with that link/file? I’m not really too sure how to actually follow it

Edit: I’ve figured it out. Just had to download an rss reader. Thanks a bunch for the help, this is very useful

TheDarkQuark ,

Didn’t try this particular link, but in general, with a feed link, you can plug it in any feeds app and get notified whenever the user posts something. Feeder is a good android RSS feeds app.

Corr OP ,

Yeah I found that. I just updated my original reply. Thanks :)

Uncle_Iroh ,

I think it’s possible but it’s more trouble than it’s worth. I recommend using mastodon to follow people and or hashtags
