One point on Lemmy. What software best federates with Lemmy? I'm posting this comment from a Mastodon account through Fedilabs. The Lemmy thread is understandable, more or less. Is this only a matter of client and UI?

Also seen from a pixelfed account, the main post of a lemmy thread is fully readable, but I can't see the comments

@talou @caos @deadsuperhero whaaat :O screenshot please
@RookieNerd
Nope, the main post of each lemmy thread is a title+link only as seen from mastodon web client and background interface. Although comments are fully readables.
Let's hope this will be better in lemmy/masto future versions
@caos @deadsuperhero
Mastodon cannot display posts with headings and the thread view is very rudimentary. In my experience, the best way of displaying and federating with Lemmy is with Friendica.
@talou @caos @deadsuperhero A nice and good read in this regard comes from the ActivityPub academy: https://seb.jambor.dev/posts/understanding-activitypub-part-2-lemmy/
This explains it very well
