The federation between mastodon and lemmy is strange. If a M account wants to follow a L community, they need to follow an automated M account which represents the L community. But if any M post mentions that L community, the post will get boosted by the community's M account, so everybody who follows will get a notification. And I'm not sure if this can be moderated from the L side, because it seems like it never goes through L. Such as - do you see this @opensource ? Does a L mod see this?

@chebra @opensource
See for yourself here: https://lemmy.ml/post/12065212
I wonder, will this show up as a reply or as a separate post on lemmy?

As a side note, I can't see many of your posts('toots') on my mastodon inst
ance, maly.io, and I had to go to you home instance to see this post, after I saw it on lemmy. Strange.

(P.S. hi @[email protected])

It does seem to work -- let's see how a reply to a reply will appear on Mastodon.

@[email protected] Even favourites/upvotes reciprocate! Quite a good integration they've got worked out.
