This is my own self-hosted single-user Pleroma instance that operates as a back-up for @atomicpoet@calckey.social. I'll probably use this to talk about hobbies.

@Feathercrown No, this account is from Akkoma. I can submit a post to Lemmy by mentioning the community handle in my post. Such is the magic of the Fediverse.

@jwcph @fediverse @Coolmccool I’ve explained how to use it: you submit to a group from Mastodon by tagging. In fact, you’re using it right now. Look at one of the accounts you’re mentioning.
Did you not read the original post?
- Comment on 1 week ago:@regineheidorn @fediverse Yeah, people I know boosted her messages—which implies they may have given her money. The thing is, that grifter’s success is going to attract other grifters if this problem isn’t addressed.

@m3t00 @fediverse Are you talking about hashtags or groups?

@jwcph @fediverse @Coolmccool To be blunt, “it’s like email” is probably good enough for 95% of casual users in terms of an explanation for how the Fediverse works.
It’s all just email. Mastodon, Pixelfed, and Lemmy are really all just email.
But the moment you ask, “Well, actually, how does it all work? How is it possible to use Lemmy with Mastodon?”
The answer is: actors.
And maybe that is abstract, but I assure you that’s the practical reason you’re able to do it. Once you understand that the Fediverse is made up of actors/activities, a whole new world of possibilities opens up—even for regular users. It’s why you’re participating on Lemmy right now, even though it still looks like “Mastodon” to you.
Now I’m sorry that you may perceive this as “beside the point,” but people ask how it works and I’m telling you. However, if this is too abstract, remember: it’s all “email”.
- Comment on 1 week ago:@jwcph @fediverse @Coolmccool No, those concepts aren’t for everyday users. It’s for developers. For the same reason a homeowner doesn’t need to know the ins and out of architecture, an everyday user does need to know about the architecture of the Fediverse.
Nevertheless, it’s how ActivityPub works—and I will go more in depth in a future thread for those who want to know. - Comment on 1 week ago:@LibertyForward1 @fediverse Not only can you follow, you can post to a Lemmy community from Mastodon by mentioning the Lemmy community. In fact, you just mentioned a Lemmy community, so you’re using Lemmy right now—but from you’re perspective, it looks like Mastodon.
- Comment on 1 week ago:@jwcph @fediverse @Coolmccool The best way to understand the Fediverse is not as a collection of servers but instead as actors that implement activities.
You are an actor. A Lemmy community is an actor. A bot is an actor. An app is an actor.
All these things do activities. One activity is to like a post. Another activity is to repost.
And all these apps like Mastodon are just presenting these actors/activities in a certain format.
Hope that explains things. - Comment on 1 week ago:@m3t00 @fediverse Give me more context and what you specifically mean.

@ElectroVagrant With time, that stuff will be ironed out. Group support is in Mastodon’s road map. Now Mastodon develops very slowly, so take that with a grain of salt. But the point is that groups are coming to Mastodon… eventually.

@Coolmccool @fediverse The best way to explain #Pixelfed is that it’s an Instagram-like front-end for the Fediverse. But practically speaking, it’s Mastodon if pictures were a requirement on Mastodon. You interact with a Pixelfed account from Mastodon in much the same way you interact with another Mastodon account, or how you’re interacting with my Akkoma account right now. It really is just like email.
Regarding group topics, the best way to find them is to do a search on a place like lemmy.world or lemmy.ca. For example,
uiux@programming.dev
is one. And you can find the URL here: - Submitted 1 week ago to fediverse@lemmy.world | 80 comments

@leopardboy It does not work well with Ivory since Ivory is very insistent about only being compatible with Mastodon.
Other Mastodon clients work, however, including Mastodon’s official client.

@objectinspace I appreciate your interest too!
By the way, I also loathe CAPCHAs but since there’s a spam problem on the Fediverse, I need to be careful about who I let in. 🙁
If you still want an account on akkomane.social, please let me know and I can provide an alternative means to get you started.

@leopardboy Yes, it does! I have successfully migrated from firefish.city to atomicpoet.org, which is my Akkomane server.
If you want to test drive Akkomane and see how you like it, feel free to register an account on akkomane.social.

@tassoman @fediversenews Soapbox isn’t usable with Akkoma. And even if it were, most people that use Akkoma wouldn’t use Soapbox.
