Still getting used to the fact that I'm seeing Mastodon posts while browsing Lemmy. Really loving this federated infrastructure design!

MODERATORS
This is a mastodon post?
If you hover over OP's username under the post's title, you can see that they're using a mastodon.world account.
I hope this takes off. I miss the decentralized internet.
@Osobanjin @Jdreben Redditors are faggots and so are Star Trek fans. YOUR KIND ARE NOT WELCOME HERE!
You just posted this to where it moved?
@Mynameisnotdoug Yeah apparently I did. Tbh, was not my intent.
What was your intent exactly? Many of us probably could have made the same mistake, this is confusing
@avatar I was just attempting to share the Mastodon handle that I was able to follow!
Apparently including that handle in a Mastodon post starts a Lemmy post in that forum.
Tried to follow a couple Lemmy communities from Mastodon, but it feeds you every post and comment, which gets unmanageable at any /c/ of reasonable size.
Is there a way that I can follow only the top-level posts from my Mastodon? Maybe I'm missing it.
@sharpsphere @Jdreben There's no way yet. I'm hopeful that a Lemmy or Mastodon updates adds some sort of flag for top level posts to allow them to be filtered.
As it stands, I just browse lemmy with my lemmy account, and then copy the link and paste it into my Masto instance if I want to comment.
Like I'm doing now!
Yeah despite being able to see communities and tops ok either platform, I have seperate lemmy and mastodon accounts for this reason. I want to keep forum style conversation seperate from a stream of toots.
I don't know if this will work, and I'm going to have to try it, but Mastodon has a feature when looking at someone's profile to ignore boosts. My understanding of how Lemmy federated to other platforms is that the comments appear as boosts by the community, so turning on that option might do what you want.
(This is also why I stopped following communities through Mastodon, but I only thought of the no-boost idea just now when I saw your comment!)
Neat
