I signed up on a Lemmy instance (Lemmy.world) the other day and have been learning my way around that side of the Fediverse.

It’s been interesting.

Tonight, I discovered that I can follow a Lemmy Community and view its posts from the comfort of my Mastodon account!

All you do is enter
@[Community]@[Lemmy Instance] in the search bar.

For instance, if I want to see posts from the Coffee community on my Lemmy server, I type @coffee (‘At Coffee At Lemmy.world’) in the search bar and click the Follow button when it shows up in my timeline.

This new learning amazes me!

    This is awesome, thanks for the tip. I’m not actually interested much in Mastodon (was never much of a Twitter user either), but I do have accounts on some instances and there are some good mobile and desktop apps for Mastodon and not so much right now for Lemmy.
