This is the place to ask beginner and simple questions. Some examples include:
• Soap, scent, or gear recommendations • Favorite scents, bases, etc • Where to buy certain items • Identification of a razor you just bought • Troubleshooting shaving issues such as cuts, poor lather, and technique
Please note these are examples and any questions for the sub should be posted here.
I’m seeing posts from Lemmy show up on Mastodon. Does this mean there’s a way to link these accounts so that, for example, my post in the SotD thread shows up as a post on Mastodon?
Exactly. Lemmy and Mastodon all operate under the activitypub protocol, so they can see each other’s content, but display it in different ways.
On Mastodon, check out @[email protected]. You’ll see it’s a Mastodon feed of all the posts to that Lemmy community. You can also check out a specific user, so @[email protected] will be all your Lemmy posts.
The thing is that they don’t play nice together. So yesterday I tried tagging one of the Lemmy communities’ Mastodon account in a Mastodon post, and it created a post on Lemmy that was the text of my Mastodon post.
So not perfect, but it is another way to watch what’s going on.
I was never a big fan of Twitter’s layout, but it is cool to this crossover.
Thanks for the info! I’m probably going to keep them separate for now. Going to start looking into other Lemmy communities later this week.
