    Lemmy communities appear as users in mastodon. But you can’t follow a lemmy user from mastodon, I don’t think.

        Looks like you’re right. Following a lemmy user in mastodon will show you all of their posts (but not comments).

      Yes you can - I’ve followed my accounts at Lemmy, Pixelfed, Bookwyrm and Peertube from Mastodon and it is definitely pulling in my Lemmy posts (I have yet to post on the other three yet but will do that soon as I am testing out how interconnected everything is). I made a “me” list on Tusky to collect them together:

      You can see you can then reply, boost, etc through the Mastodon app of your choice.

      As I say, it’s early days and I am still experimenting. My main finding was that it could take a few goes for Mastodon to find the accounts, but it does in the end.
