@ElectroVagrant I wonder if this will work too?

(I’m using the “content warning” feature of Mastodon, and replying directly to a lemmy.world user)

EDIT: Okay the content warning didn’t work, but it appears that so long as I @ someone on the server that owns the group (it doesn’t have to be the group),my messages will federate correctly. Also if you can read this, Mastodon’s edit federation works too. 😋

Ha, honestly I’m impressed that any of this is working at all. 😆

By the way, to anyone reading this, in my previous reply I omitted the mention of @selfhosted. The reply didn’t show up on #Lemmy until @NumbersCanBeFun replied to it.

@roosmaa @selfhosted Ha, I’m happy to have helped answer the question. 😆

This was supposed to just be a toot to my feed sharing that I figured out how to follow groups from Mastodon. I was not expecting to stumble across how to post to groups using Mastodon too. 😅

@Eddie I would love more interoperability. 😉

It makes me wonder if the “thing” to dethrone #Mastodon will be an alternative server/client/app that speaks multiple #Fediverse application protocols? I’m jealous that a #Lemmy server requires a _fraction_ of the RAM that a #KBin or Mastodon server does.

(Obligitory @selfhosted for Lemmy to notice me)

Oops! I didn’t expect this to start a thread on @selfhosted (I posted this from Mastodon). Hello other Fediverse friends. 😅

@Eddie If you include the group name (@selfhosted) it seems to work, but this isn’t really practical.

@NumbersCanBeFun Okay that was unexpected. I managed to post a new topic and reply to Lemmy.world using my Mastodon client. That was supposed to be a “thinking out loud” toot. 😅

I attached some images to my first reply, but they were ignored. I wonder if my server strips out markdown? 🤔

* _Test_

@NumbersCanBeFun @selfhosted Oh wow, I didn’t realize this would actually cross post to Lemmy.world. 😅

Oh wow, I didn’t realize I actually cross posted to #Lemmy by @'ing the group. 😅
