#experiment tagging @mozilla @mozilla @firefox @firefox to see if this post shows up on #lemmy .

Apparently your mastodon posts show up on Lemmy under the right circumstances (tagging a Lemmy community). 🤞

Edit: if I remove the tagging, will the post magically disappear from Lemmy too?

Edit:
For mastodon users wondering about this, here’s the corresponding Lemmy thread: https://lemmy.ml/post/13358920

Mastodon thread for Lemmy users: https://fosstodon.org/@thegreybeardofthetree/112120405122806398

    @mozilla @firefox
    Answer found: it is a reply to the original post!

    Further, an upvote on #lemmy is a boost on #mastodon.

    What’s weird is that the boost seems to come from the community it was posted to, not the Lemmy user that upvoted it.

    I wonder what happens when there are multiple upvotes … Multiple boosts by the and community (e.g. @firefox)?

        I see multiple upvotes, but only one boost.

        Further, the boost only seems to apply to the top post, not to the replies.

        Well that’s odd, what if it’s a different user that’s commenting? Maybe all the boosts went to the top post because it was all by the same user

        Even better - you can see the whole thread from both #lemmy and from #Mastodon . However, you only see the conversation, not upvotes/downvotes in mastodon, while you see votes too in Lemmy.

        Edit: I tried to not tag @firefox this time to see if my reply showed up on Lemmy. It didn’t.

        Tagging so the Lemmy thread also shows the reply and pictures.

      Not quite. An upvote on Lemmy is a favorite on mastodon. However, all posts on Lemmy look like they are a “boost” by the community when viewing from mastodon.
