@ZWho63 Can I comment lemmy posts from mastodon?

My findings so far:
- Can I edit it? (Yes I can)

- Pictures attached on mastodon don't show up on lemmy.

- Some replies don't show up on lemmy.ml, but visible on fosstodon.org and https://pawb.social.

- Link to pawb.social is not linkified without https:// prefix.

An example of two attached screenshots that are visible only on fosstodon: https://fosstodon.org/@abcdw/111152102681928222

I'm assuming this comment is from Mastodon? If so, yes. You show up as "Andrew Tropin@null." I'm replying from Lemmy, home instance pawb.social.

Huh, the user tag of the last Mastadon user I saw on Lemmy was also @null, although their tag seems to be showing up correctly for me now

@Rambi @name_NULL111653 It seems lemmy.ml doesn't render my repsonses to lemm.ee or other instances accounts :/

So on Mastadon do you see Lemmy posts as the Mastadon equivalent of a Tweet?

I never see posts and comments from Mastadon users on Lemmy even though I believe it's more popular so you would expect there to be more or at least a similar number as from Lemmy users. I think your comment is only the second I've seen from Mastadon users.

Like the other reply says, the user tag of the last Mastadon user I saw was [name]@null, though yours is fine for me now. Also odd that your attached images don't show even though Lemmy has that feature too. Maybe these issues will be ironed out soon

@Rambi Yes, you can see how it looks here:
https://fosstodon.org/@abcdw/111152102681928222

It seems attaching pictures doesn't work both ways (I don't see attached pictures from lemmy user in mastodon too).

Huh interesting. So I guess replies appear in order of when they were made and not weighted based on upvotes, seen as there appears to be no equivent on Mastodon? Quite cool (and a bit confusing) how Activity Pub is stitching everything together. I wish I could see more content from Mastodon show up in Lemmy, not sure how that would work with communities though.

Also, I notice the web version of Mastodon has a really nice UI

@ZWho63 It seems pictures from mastodon don't get it to lemmy.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

@ZWho63 It is a reply with screenshot of the reply, which is not visible in lemmy.
