In the federated future, anyone in the Fediverse will be able to subscribe to a Lemmy entity (a user, a community etc.) from outside Lemmy. Can anyone explain which entities will be available to subscribe, and how it will look like for others?
Subscribing to a community - does it mean that there is an account such as @lemmy_support@dev.lemmy.ml, that will show all posts in the community (I guess in chronological order)? In which way federated posts will contain the info on the post’s author? How comments to a post will be federated?
Subscribing to a user - does it mean subscribing to self-posts only, or to all posts/comments of that user?
I vote for the domain approach.
It makes it a lot harder for a normal user to troll the format, for example by setting their username as
c-user.
