So, how does the Fediverse work? Not the tech specs, but in use cases? I have a Mastodon account that I signed up for, but never really used. @[email protected] I can theoretically use it to view posts in a Lemmy instance. However, the interaction between Mastodon is quite different from Lemmy. Mastodon works for toots, but it didn't seem to be a good interface for browsing the communities in a Lemmy instance. So, I created an account on this server.

Should we stick to just logging in to a single server? Is it bad manners to have separate accounts on different Fediverse instances?

reddit was great for discoverability. it centralized everything so you could find a group for even the most niche topics. Using Lemmy is almost going back to the days of having the a lot of different message board sites. One good feature of the Fediverse is that you only have to log in to one site, instead of needing a separate log in for each one. But will the federated system still fracture our communities? [email protected] is separate from [email protected] right? So, you would need to view and post to each one to see everything?

Here is a link to Ryuugi's actual post for the story. I prefer to go to the author's original post instead of other people's reposts. Still, thanks for pointing the story out. I have read some of Ryuugi's other crossover works (Mostly Worm), and have enjoyed them [RWBY/The Gamer] The Games We Play
