So I did figure out that yes, #Mastodon can federate #Lemmy and #Kbin content. The problem is that Mastodon doesn't know what to do with it, so it (the group) looks like a user that boosts all posts and comments.
I found myself browsing the "federated group" @selfhosted over on https://kbin.social, as I think Kbin has a nicer UX for it.
I didn't really want to create a separate account for group stuff, but that might be what we do in the short term. π€
@Eddie If you include the group name (@selfhosted) it seems to work, but this isn't really practical.
Hm, that's very interesting. I wonder if the platforms will build upon each other with future updates or if they'll continue to remain "seperate" in terms of formatting and QoL. Very interested in the future of cross platform federation accounts.
@Eddie I know the kbin dev has been adjusting the federated backend to work better with mastodon. So I think it will all get better, it'll just take time.
Oh yes definitely. The exiting part isn't when it happens, but how it happens ;)
