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 (fosstodon.org)

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 !programming@beehaw.org but this returns nothing (with the ! prefix) on fosstodon. Am I missing something? #lemmy #fediverse #beehaw

@jpm @programming You literally just did it! By tagging @progamming@beehaw.org, you created a new post. The replies you're getting on Mastodon are showing up as threaded replies on beehaw.

@awilbert @jpm @programming this is the first example I've seen of this interoperability. Really cool, thanks for sharing!

You're telling me this post was created automatically because he tagged this community in his mastodon post? And my comments appear there as well?

@MaggiWuerze Yes! I'm replying from mastodon too!

@awilbert @jpm @programming Are you aware if there's some documentation on how this works?

[–] awilbert@mastodon.social 2 points 1 year ago

@heatrunner @jpm @programming Not that I know of, but i'm sure there is somewhere. I think most of us are in the "poke it with a stick and see what happens" phase.
