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 think most lemmy or mastodon users don’t even realise we’re on kbin when they read our comments.
Even in this thread, a large proportion of the comments are from kbin users.
That is a crazy thought really. Us being able to communicate. I always really love to see the @ handles for some instances as it brings on this togetherness and uniqueness that no other site (or really protocol) gives me. Honestly kinda weird some apps prefer to hide that instance label rather than show it.
I think you’re right. Outside of Lemmy I don’t think many people have heard of kbin so the mastodon people probably think we’re a mastodon instance.
I want to start posting microblogs somewhere and see if any of them see it.
Edit: posted one and a mastodon account I mentioned upvoted it so yes they can see us under some circumstances!
