The app I use, Moshidon, is able to open shared links in the same way infinity does. Maybe some other apps can do this too.

There's also an app similar to Lemmy Redirect called Mastodon Redirect (IzzyOnDroid) (GitHub). The app says it works with the "official" Mastodon app, Elk, Fedilab, Megalodon, Moshidon, Subway Tooter, and Tooot.

You can also copy the link and paste it into the search bar in the app you use.

I can see that, yeah! After I made the strawberry, some people were making the flag of Sweden and Denmark where the strawberry I made was, but instead of paving over it they built the flags around it!

Someone actually made another strawberry next to the Madeline, and they put tiny Sweden and Denmark flags next to it. I find that really cute.

I'm not able to install the app, anyone know why this could be happening?

I think it's because the release is tagged as pre release in codeberg, not because it's below 1.0

[–] NicoCharrua 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Seems like community links are broken in Infinity, the first link gave an error and the second doesn't even show as a link.

I think you're right. I used some other Reddit apps and the favorites never synced between them so I thought it wasn't built in and every app did it separately, but I can see that infinity and new.reddit.com sync their favorites! I'll edit my comment

~~I don't think Reddit had a favorite feature either, and it's just local per app. Or at least in my experience favorites never synced between apps.~~ (This is wrong). Local favorites feature would be greatly appreciated!

Unrelated, but would it be possible to make the comment sorting option more visible? It's currently under the three dots menu, even though there seems to be enough space at the top of the screen.

It doesnt no

[–] NicoCharrua 2 points 2 years ago

I agree in a lot of ways. Lemmy does feel very beta at times. Mastodon does feel much more finished, except for the fact that favorites and boosts don't federate properly a lot of the time.

But this specifically feels perfectly fine to me. The fact that they're interoperable at all is more than I'd expect. Lemmy and Mastodon are so different in how they show content that I can't think of a much better way to do it (other than maybe having communities boost only posts and not comments when seen from mastodon).

How do you think they should be reworked to work better with each other?

[–] NicoCharrua 6 points 2 years ago (5 children)

Only somewhat. Lemmy Communities show up as users when viewed from mastodon, that boost every single post and comment in the community (so browsing it is near impossible, and there is no sorting). Mastodon users can interact with posts (but can't downvote), and they can post by @-ing the community.

You can't follow mastodon users or view mastodon posts from Lemmy. I heard kbin had some functionality to do with this tho
