DrewCommins, 1 year ago to coffee

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!

@mrmanager
I didn’t post there., they boosted it because I mentioned the Coffee community.

@mrmanager I think the problem is actually because I referenced the Coffee community in my original toot. I posted it from my account on Universodon and that got the attention of someone (mod maybe?) in the Coffee community who then boosted it.

So, the lesson here is to be careful who you reference in your toots because they may show up in places you might not want them to. Especially if the reference is to a Lemmy community or Kbin magazine.
