Lemmy interoperability with other Fediverse projects
Hi everyone!
I'm new here and I wonder if you have any advice/testimonials to share regarding Fediverse interoperability.
I'm working on a post about it for my blog series The Future is Federated. I’d like to do a show & tell, demonstrating what interoperability looks like between #Lemmy and #Friendica, #Mastodon + a federated blog to start with.
ActivityPub addressing is really somewhat complex and pretty much any server is going to abstract it with things like at-mentions, sometimes making different assumptions. When I reply to lemmy posts from my microblog.pub server, I sometimes need to make sure to include both the user (@[email protected]) and community (@[email protected]) if they happen to be on different domains. Otherwise my server's addressing won't send it to the right place. And I doubt other lemmy instances will see this post unless I tag them too.
@[email protected]@[email protected] Sure, although I had forgotten that the community shares replies to, so it actually does federate out if I tag it.
It is federating for all instances that have the [email protected] community federated, but only because @[email protected] tagged the community in his message.
