@asklemmy Tips on using mastodon?

I just moved from my old Lemmy account (@dch82@lemmy.zip) to a Mastodon account.

Any tips?

Sure: don't use Mastodon to participate in Lemmy communities.

You can of course, which you clearly already know. Tagging a community in s top-level post even results in a good experience, but subscribing to communities does not, and you can't vote.

Maintaining accounts on both is a good idea.

@Zak OK, thanks!

Still though, it is insanely awesome to be able to post across platforms and servers.

[–] user224@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

KBin can natively interact with both.

FYI, kbin is kinda dead, but was forked last year into an active community model mbin

I feel like it's important to say that kind isn't dead in the there's no people in communities point of view. It's dead as in it has far more down time than up time.

@JayTreeman@fedia.io

its been completely unusable for over a month. how long until we get to consider it dead?

I'm just saying there's two types of internet dead. Kbin is dead dead

@JayTreeman @asklemmy @dch82@lemmy.zip @Zak @user224 @originalucifer It’s a two-by-two matrix of technological deadness and social deadness

[–] stoy@lemmy.zip 4 points 4 months ago

I am curious, what is the advantage to you foe doing this?

To me it just seems like a hassle, I have a Lemmy account, a Mastodon account and a Pixelfed account.

They all seem to have their own uses, and I guess I just don't see the point of navigating Lemmy through a Mastodon interface..

But I am probably missing something here...

[–] VanHalbgott@lemmus.org 3 points 4 months ago

I would mute and/or block the users and posts that bug you.

People are just weird...especially on the Internet.
