Lemmy community account on mastodon boosts both posts and replies

@lemmy

when i follow a lemmy community on mastodon, the “account” of the community boosts both posts and replies - that is not how it is on lemmy itself, and the replies being boosted lead to a lot of out-of-context on my timeline. why is that so, and is it possible to change it so that it boosts only posts?

    @maegul pardon me if I’m wrong, but isn’t Mastodon meant to be more like Twitter and Lemmy Kbin more like reddit? They’re fulfilling different purposes, just can communicate to each other. I subscribed to Lemmy community from Mastodon so I could get a form of chronological newsfeed (also, the mastodon application ecosystem is far more mature)

    Lemmy Kbin was never meant to replace Mastodon, only coexist
