FYI you can follow Lemmy (reddit-alternative) communities from within Mastodon; for example if you follow @crypto you will get the Lemmy crypto community.

If that spams your feed, you can also add them to lists!

    @crypto (ok what I didn’t realize is that this is also how you post a thread on Lemmy, so condolences to all the Lemmy viewers who already knew this <3 on the upside if you want a crypto-focused Mastodon UI, always open signups on this instance!)

        feedback on the link bot, may be good to have it only reply once per thread/user combo, because the default Mastodon UX auto-inserts the reference into any future replies (but will start consciously deleting it!)

          I’ve fixed it, it now shouldn’t respond to you if you’re on Mastodon and only link to one community in your comment / post.

            thanks, appreciate it! (though I’m no longer leaving the mentions in replies so it was solved for me anyway, but I think for new users this will be very useful :))

    @crypto you can also comment directly from Mastodon. different platforms become differnet skins on the same data, ain’t federation grand?
