Curious, how many users here actually use ActivityPub's capabilities to see other social media sites? (lemm.ee)

I've always wondered how many people actually decide to use something like mastodon to see Lemmy posts. I mean I know how inadequate it can be with a lack of a proper UI but I'm just wondering. Especially, with the infinite possibilities this can have.

Yeah, I'm not clear either. At first I thought the microblogs section would work more like Mastodon but that doesn't seem to be the case. Big missed opportunity

Ernest is still building it so I think we are going to see more functionality around the underdeveloped aspects. He was kind of swamped by the reddit influx.

I just posted my first microblog today. Nothing fladh just an article I liked.

I credited/mentioned the mastodon account I got the link from. The mastodon account person came by and upvoted it, so clearly we are able to get interactions with them. Exciting!
