I signed up on a Lemmy instance (Lemmy.world) the other day and have been learning my way around that side of the Fediverse.

It’s been interesting.

Tonight, I discovered that I can follow a Lemmy Community and view its posts from the comfort of my Mastodon account!

All you do is enter
@[Community]@[Lemmy Instance] in the search bar.

For instance, if I want to see posts from the Coffee community on my Lemmy server, I type @coffee (‘At Coffee At Lemmy.world’) in the search bar and click the Follow button when it shows up in my timeline.

This new learning amazes me!

    This sort of command line stuff needs to be worked into the UI somehow to help us noobs that are not knowledgeable in those things. It needs to work much easier and more conveniently.
