Disclaimer: I’m a noooooob.

I am logged in to lemmy.world.

I have a feed (Beehaw Local) which I open in a new tab about Reddit affecting Google. with the beehaw.org URL (so I’m not logged in or registered) posted by someone at lemmy.world.

If I follow the @ lemmy.world link, I’m still inside Beehaw, same goes for the Technology link.

My confusion is that I can’t see how to open and interact with that post without making a separate Beehaw account.

Why am I so stupid on this platform?

    You can’t. If you are on beehaw you need a beehaw account to respond.

    But why do you need to be on beehaw? Is the community you want to look at not available to lemmy.world?

      Well there’s the rub. I added the RSS a day or two ago, I saw that post. The post is from a lemmy.world account on Beehaw - I think it should be trivial to open it and interact.

      If I look at the similar Lemmy feed, I don’t see it - and I can’t find it in a search - it’s kind of ‘walled off’ to me.

      Beehaw and Lemmy.World don’t have the same headers.

        This might be related to beehaw running an outdated version of lemmy, they’re fixing this in about an hour.
