Didn’t actually realise that the #StarTrek subreddits of /r/StarTrek & /r/DaystromInstitute had permanently locked their subreddits and started a #Lemmy community @ https://lemmy.world/c/startrek@startrek.website @startrek.
Given Trek fandom are often the first colonizers of online spaces in internet history (eg newsgroups) losing major Star Trek communities is big L for Reddit.
@Lamhfada @startrek FYI, tagging a Lemmy community from Mastodon also turns the toot into a post in that community - something to keep in mind!
And yes, the Lemmy instance is run by current and former mods of those subreddits.
Yep. I wrote a basic demo of posting to a lemmy community from mastodon here: https://hachyderm.io/@maegul/110483509521476095 (Also mentioned the same in this community here: https://lemmy.ml/comment/1110753)
In the thread you’ll find links to the lemmy view of the post.
It’s pretty easy actually! And it’s a nice way to join these two platforms together, as people from both mastodon, any other microblog and lemmy/kbin will all be able to participate in a conversation together.
When the fediverse works well, it’s really a multiplier, as the sizes of all of the platforms can contribute to the effective size of any one of them to help build communities, or, to bootstrap a new platform above the threshold of having compelling activity.
