I heard on mastodon you can apparently interact with lemmy users, although it presents itself horribly. Is it possible with Jerboa to interact with mastodon?
I like how everyone is answering the literal question asked (is it possible? Yes!) and no one is picking up on the extremely obviously implied question of “how?”
(I don’t know how or I’d answer)
Mastodon users can see this thread in their app. It appears as a normal Tweet, and all the comments are replies to the Tweet.
You often see Mastodon Tweets when you change the sort from Local to All, but unless you pay attention you don’t notice the difference

I cannot find a way to follow accounts on Jerboa
I asked the same question the other day about pixelfed accounts. The consensus was that lemmy can’t follow individual accounts yet but it’s being looked at for future updates.
Saying that I’m just passing information along and I might not be totally correct
Thank you for your feedback
Not really. Maybe that’s instance dependent but all I see is posts to lemmy communities. I know that mastodon users can post in lemmy communities by tagging the community and it shows up here but how would a tweet with no tags show up?
but how would a tweet with no tags show up
this comment here has no tags
i have no idea to see a random toot that is not connected to any lemmy post. putting the url in the search (like in mastodon) does nothing
That’s an account from lemmygrad, so not a tweet. But I get that reply tweets could show up as comments.
No, i made the post and the comment with my account from mastodon.
Do you not mean the reply by nephs? Because your reply does have a mention
i mention nephs, but not the instance.
to create a post i MUST mention the instance.
the mention is there because mastodon puts it automatically.

That’s weird. I can only see 2 comments and they both are asking for ‘yes’ commenters to explain how.
Your comment is a Tweet in Mastodon, replying to OPs Tweet
Mastodon users can interact with Lemmy, that why some instances have a “chat” community.
But you can interact with any community from Mastodon (Ex@jerboa@lemmy.ml
), it will show all posts and comments as reply.So maybe in the future it’s possible, the app is still alpha and many issues with Lemmy need to be fixed, don’t see interacting with other networks so soon.
PS: There’s an app Fedilab which works with multiple fediverse networks, maybe it will have support sooner for Lemmy and interact with other networks
