In the web interface, search “all” with the link. Worked for me
Godspeed you, black emperor!
lemme give it a try
Update: i failed miserably, i tried to search this entry https://mstdn.social/@[email protected]/110615667838401899
Lemmy communities appear as users in mastodon. But you can’t follow a lemmy user from mastodon, I don’t think.
Update: i failed miserably, i tried to search this entry https://mstdn.social/@[email protected]/110615667838401899
That looks like too much… stuff in the URL.
It looks like:
- you are on mastdn.social
- trying to view the user: @[email protected]
- whose link would be something like: https://xarxa.cloud/@Argyle13
- making them: Celia Valdeolmillos
- the post ID would then, I assume, be: 110615667838401899
edit: and just to say that using the link above in the way I demonstrated gets that user’s profile brought through.
Thanks for the URL dissection, still cant make contact with mstd instance
Maybe im out of touch
I got it to work through the Lemmy web interface before but can’t make it work now. Equally, I can’t get their profile up to follow on Mastodon.
I don’t know the cause of that but it might be an issue with that instance or federation in general.
edit and now it works just fine. Keep plugging away.
Worth noting that, as I posted the link above, the profile now appears below my post.
I’ve been curious about this myself. I tried searching up my mastodon user… which I was able to do successfully. I then tried to send him a direct message but that appears to have failed (I haven’t received it).
You can interact with Lemmy posts from Mastodon but I’m not sure about Mastodon from Lemmy. if you enter your name @[email protected] in your Mastodon search bar you will have federated your Lemmy and Mastodon instances and you will be able to view a copy of your Lemmy posts and discussions on Mastodon and other Masto users who are federated with you can see these and boost or reply as well. It’s also helpful to enter the handle of the Lemmy community you’d like to view in the Mastodon search bar ( [email protected] for this community specifically ) and you can follow Lemmy discussion for specific communities there and boost them to share to your Mastodon followers.
Sorry if I misunderstood. Unfortunately I don’t believe the opposite is possible so you won’t be able to see Mastodon posts in your Lemmy feed the way you can see Kbin posts. Maybe someone else has a more useful answer.
