@nachtigall @WorriedGnome In addition to the above - you can also post from Mastodon!
It is currently one-way: Mastodon users can follow Lemmy communities and interact with posts; you can't follow Mastodon users from Lemmy.
But it's super neat that it's able to do that at all! For example, I am replying to you from my Mastodon account. If you hit the little "Fediverse" link next to my name, you'll be taken to my profile on my Mastodon instance.
This is because both Lemmy and Mastodon are part of the Fediverse, and thus can understand the data they send to one another. So to me, your stuff shows up as toots in my timeline... and to you, this is a post on Lemmy!
