ok so this is a follow-up on my previous post [is this a bug?] how do i see lemmy content from mastodon
i might have been stupid.
i tried following the !shitpost@lemmy.world community from mastodon and it didn't show any posts or comments there.
i pasted the wrong link. the actually correct link is to follow the @lemmyshitpost@lemmy.world account from mastodon. then it works!
sorry for the confusion
It’s been a while since I ran into that issue and it’s rare to have a collision, but if I started a basxto community, @basxto@discuss.tchncs.de can only map to one. The absolute URLs are meaningless, since @ syntax is supposed to point to something on the current instance. Other URLs I have put into the search field of lemmy/mastodon to convert
For example see @test@discuss.tchncs.de and !test@discuss.tchncs.de
@basxto@discuss.tchncs.de
For example see @test and !test@discuss.tchncs.de
@gandalf_der_12te
Nice, both link the community here. !-syntax doesn’t do anything on mastodon
If somebody responds to the test account on mastodon, they’ll probably accidentally link the community
