I don't mind that, but what I do mind is that the advertised premise of the fediverse (one account for all socials) is kind of a lie
The way it's presented on jointhefediverse.net makes it seem like you can use one account across all federated socials. But it's more one account for each social, across all instances of that social, with some interoperability
technically you can. I've seen people post to lemmy from mastodon, for example. I'm not super knowledgeable about this.
You can also do it the other way, and call out Mastodon users from Lemmy.
I did that to Jason Scott once, though I think he was less than happy about it. I was just shocked it worked.
Yeah blusky doesbit better it seems really for this
