How'd you do that?!
@Squiglet just the power of the fediverse, I guess. Also posting this reply from mastodon.
To post from Mastodont to lemmy you just need to use "@" followed by community name?
@Squiglet @Xylight Pretty much, although you’ll want to differentiate between @[email protected] and other instances (i.e. @[email protected])
Interesting that I can reply to you without "@". Forgive my ignorance, I never used Twitter or Mastodon.
@Squiglet Neither have I until now😂. Was a redditor for 10 years until the API change and never could get into Twitter.
I’m assuming the @ from Mastodon is just because it’s the default way for it to display in posts. Lemmy uses the @ for replies but doesn’t display it in the comment.
pretty much like /u/ on reddit
@ always looked wierd to me tho, it's more of a surname if that makes sense
