Just curious
-
What would lemmy bridge to?

-
The other two monkes?
-
i know some federated weather service that is displayed as a user on lemmy.
-
-
Piefed supports just about everything. But I really wish all federated software worked.

-
As far as I’m aware, Friendica does this. One feed, lemmy posts, mastodon toots, and Pixelfed posts all there. Lemmy is trickier because you can’t follow people and depending on the way you look at it, comments can show up as individual posts.
-
At least, a compability with Misskey groups would be great.
So far, Misskey has varied groups that actually active that feels like close friend groups on Facebook.
-
Can confirm this appears to be the case. I might be switching to only hosting communities here but commenting there
-
Hashtags doesn't have universal thing.
For example, hashtag for #red can mean anything, from a mere color to political association.
Twitter trending tag often filled with two trending topic that shares same hashtag hut nothing do to with each other. Especially for same langauge but different region like English America vs English Asia.

It's on PieFed's roadmap for this year.

What about piefed, the pylemmy

I think the interoperability of the Fediverse is its main advantage. We don't need to be constrained by what we previously thought our focus was before the ideals of the fediverse were mainstream. If people don't want to follow individuals there's nothing that would force them to, but I think being able to connect with much wider portion of the fediverse would really help Lemmy grow.
If there's another, better way to do this then I'm open to it but allowing the following of individual accounts seems like a very simple and easy way to accomplish this.
-
IMHO better would be the reverse: proper group support in Mastodon, Pixelfed etc. But the developers of these seem to be as reluctant to implement that as the Lemmy devs are regarding user microblogging.
-
How would that work exactly? Make hashtags into "communities" or something?
-
No, have a proper separate view that only shows group posts like on Lemmy. Friendica and Mbin does it like that and Pixelfed has teased the same for a long time now. No work-arounds and semi-working hacks like now when you try to engage with a Lemmy community from Mastodon. But that you even ask how should show you just how incompatible these two social media concepts are. Basically you need two entirely different interfaces for each.
-
Well this is why I think Lemmy allowing individual follows is the best solution. It's completely compatible with the interface here. If I am understanding correctly, your suggestion would only allow you to see people who opt into posting as part of those groups. But what I want is to be able to reach and communicate with anyone on the fediverse, no matter the platform. I think this is really only going to work by connective individual users with one another.
