I’m confused about how I can link Mastodon and Lemmy sites, say. I have an account on Fosstodon. Can I use it to access and post to https://beehaw.org/c/programming for example? I can follow @programming but that’s not the same thing? The beehaw site says to search for [email protected] but this returns nothing (with the ! prefix) on fosstodon. Am I missing something? #lemmy #fediverse #beehaw
If you search for https://beehaw.org/c/programming instead - a.k.a. the URL instead of the Lemmy-syntax of
!programming@beehaw.org- then you should find it as a “person” on Mastodon. Messaging to that “person” is the same as creating a new post in the community, replying to one of the “toots” that it boosts is the same as commenting - or replying to a comment.
