I’ve always wondered how many people actually decide to use something like mastodon to see Lemmy posts. I mean I know how inadequate it can be with a lack of a proper UI but I’m just wondering. Especially, with the infinite possibilities this can have.
I haven’t used it at all. The fediverse can communicate with eachother, sure, but every website has its own ways of browsing and listing posts. Websites have to make a bridge to another website so you can actually interact with them in a way that makes sense, like how kbin has its own way to interact with Mastodon.
Unless someone makes a super app that lets you browse each implementation with one account, I think the Fediverse will mostly stay split with limited cross-app communication.
With Fedilab, which I mainly use for Mastodon, I browse peertube and if I’m logged out of lemmy/kbin I happen to like posts from that account, on mobile I find it difficult to use multiple apps. I find that app has pretty complete support to most fediverse sites
Oh yeah I heard how amazing fedilab is!
