ActivityPub magic?

So you can tag Lemmy communities from Mastodon like @tech and it just makes a new thread on Lemmy?

My imagination is a bit small, so I’m not seeing the immediate utility of this. How do you vote/downvote? How do you subscribe to a community? Those interfaces aren’t present on Mastodon.

    @bristle If you follow @tech, that’s basically how you subscribe. It will boost all posts and comments made within the community, so you can see them.

    I am not a fan of it boosting every comment from every post, but that’s actually required in order for those comments to federate to Mastodon (otherwise, you just wouldn’t see any comments from the Mastodon side).
