I've discovered a couple useful things:

  • If you move the @ to the end of the post, it won't appear in the title
  • A multiline post will treat the first line as title and the rest as body
  • Edits work, so if you want to send an old Mastodon post to a Lemmy community, you can just add the tag

Also fun: I have a script on my site to display Mastodon comments on my reviews. If I tag /c/flashlight, then the Lemmy discussion is included. See https://zakreviews.com/sc64c-le.html
