    Since it’s a Mastodon post, why not just cross-post it than a screenshot? ActivityPub should let you do that over Lemmy.

      You actually can’t. I think you should be able to, but currently you can’t. You can post from Masto to Lemmy by tagging the Lemmy community in the top level post, but tagging in a reply does nothing

      In fact actually you can’t even really crosspost from Lemmy to Lemmy. Posts that link to the same thing are lists as cross posts, but aren’t actually directly related. Text-only posts can’t be recognized as crossposts at all

      what the other guy said + the fact that nothing inplies that the op actually saw the mastodon post instead of just a screenshoto f it which they forwarded here
