    Interesting that this wound up posted in the very community you mentioned. ActivityPub wins again!

    @Hexarei It did? That's ... actually really impressive!

    It did! And thanks to the fediverse, I’m responding to you via that very post, on a completely separate Lemmy instance: programming.dev/post/4224624

    Yep! When you @ tag a Lemmy community account it posts to that community as a post regardless of what type of fedi account you use. The formatting is a bit weird though, it grabs the first few sentences of posts and puts them as the subject

    It can lead to some accidental posts though, always interesting to see these pop up (ex: someone trying to message the Firefox mastodon account accidentally posting to the Firefox Lemmy community). We don’t see any other fedi post types except Lemmy posts, so we don’t really see other parts of the fediverse unless they @ tag the communities.

    Here’s what it looks like on Lemmy

    Ooh. I just spotted something. The video I attached didn’t go across the Mastodon/Lemmy boundary. Seems that Lemmy won’t let me upload video. :-/

    Let’s try this instead.

    It worked for me. I’m using Boost for Lemmy as my client.

    Weird. I’m just using the web site.

    The video works for me using Lemmy on Mobile Firefox web browser. The fun quirks of early software lol

    Also worked for me using Sync for Lemmy, FWIW.

    It worked. I’m seeing it on lemmy.world using Firefox. I’m not using any of the special front-ends.
