Question about Fediverse login. (discuss.tchncs.de)

Hello all!

I was looking at tchncs.de and all it federated services offerings. I was wondering if, having a lemmy account here, I could log in to Mastodon and Pixelfed.

When I tried just now, I couldn't. Is there a way to do this and I was too dumb to figure it out, or I need an account for each service?

Thanks!

@pandaconurbano You will need an account for each service you want to use. You can still interact with an account on a service with other services.

I'm currently on mastodon writing a comment to your Lemmy instance, just like that.

Hummm, I see. Slightly disappointing but not unexpected, since I know nothing on how the fediverse and ActivityPub work xD

Imagine being to follow a YouTube channel from your Twitter account, or reply to a Facebook group with your Reddit account.

That's basically what the Fediverse is: not all of the platforms will be completely compatible, but the base compatibility will be there

@Blaze @pandaconurbano@discuss.tchncs.de I see. I could search this comment from Tusky. I guess the difference between apps is how they show data, more than a difference in the data itself.
