I'm very excited to see how this all develops. Right now it's pretty rough and the constant failure to load/comments getting duplicated or disappearing hurts a lot but it does have potential. Let the Lemmy's free!
That's understandable, I think my (and many other refugee adopters) are just trying to figure out how the fediverse works and how instances communicate with each other. If I have a .world account I can pull threads from the other Lemmy servers, can I cross the streams into something like Mastodon too?
Yes, you can view and interact with mastadon and knin accounts though lemmy. tho something like kbin integrates better with lemmy because their interfaces are pretty similar. I think as development continues we will see better tools for different areas of the fediverse to better interact with eachother.
I believe "Lemmings" is the preferred nomenclature :P
I'd rather not be called a lemming tbh. Especially during these times online
