Since both lemmy and Mastodon use the fediverse, is it possible to view comment threads under posts from lemmy in Mastodon? How to find a link that works in both/ is it related to the posts id?

Would these work with #hashtags ?

    You can find Lemmy posts on Mastodon, yeah, but only if it’s been federated there.

    In regards to Lemmy, there’s two means of federation I’m aware of:

    • When a user of a Mastodon instance is following a Lemmy community, posts made to it are federated to their instance.
    • Any registered user on a Mastodon instance can enter the URL of a Lemmy post in their instance’s search field to actively federate it in

    You should then be able to find the post on Mastodon either over the community’s profile, via potential hashtags used in it, or possible the author’s profile if that got federated over too (idk if this happens automatically).

    If the post was made by an Mbin user, then there’s also the option to follow the user directly instead of the community the post was made in. Not sure if this also applies to Piefed, but definitely doesn’t for Lemmy.

      Old post, but in case it’s useful in the future, also a third option is to follow someone whose instance has communities and boosts at the same time, and follow him/her. Whenever the post is boosted, it gets propagated to the Mastodon instance of the follower.

      Mbin does this, PieFed early on said they wanted to implement a similar hybrid system as Kbin/Mbin but dunno how it’s going, and with how overarching Misskey seems to be for text/image posts, I wouldn’t be surprised if one there could follow communities too.
