Just playing with federation and wanted to know how you could log into mastadon and follow a lemmy community.

from Mastodon just search the community like this:

@[email protected]

So do i understand well that a community and a user cannot share the same nickname?

Doesn’t seem to work for my instance. I can see communities from lemmy.ml though

You need to change your nginx config like this:

Thanks nutomic that was it. Guess I needed to update the ansible repo. This is some really cool stuff. I don't think most people can truly appreciate the weight of it. I can see why facebook is in a hurry to find other markets.

Is your instance on the latest Lemmy release of 0.14.x?

Yeah. Think it would have to be for me to post this comment
