How would you feel about Lemmy being able to pull in hashtags from the Fediverse? (lazysoci.al)

So you could subscribe communities to hashtags and have it displays toots and pictures from that hashtag in the Lemmy UI

I feel like it would be more interesting to be able to properly "crosspost" a toot into Lemmy. When I'm on the twittoverse with my Sharkey account, I often encounter content that I want to share in Lemmy community. The only way to it for know is to create a new toot and have in it the link to the toot to share. That's not great.
Also, I often forgot to add the mention of the community when I wrote OC from Sharkey I cannot edit my toot to add the mention and see it post to Lemmy. I have to delete it and rewrite it from the start.

If you use both Lemmy and Sharkey actively, Mbin might be interesting to you: https://kbin.run/ or https://fedia.io/

That's a good advice but not in my case because I'm much attached to my local thread. Do you know if kbin allow to do crosspost of toots?

Not an expert, but I've heard so, yes.

Mbin users, please correct me if I'm wrong

It would be nice to have a bookmarklet that enabled easier cross posting.
