Say, are you saying that it's possible to take an existing Mastodon post, and post it into Lemmy? If so can you pliz point me to someplace that says how to do that? So far I've only seen this guide: https://anonsys.net/display/bf69967c-1467-8270-7e3d-48d984455929 and it only says how to crosspost a new Mastodon post, not an existing Mastodon post.
Right now, you can crosspost to a Friendica group by mentioning the group actor handle (ex:
@fediversenews@venera.social. And because Friendica supports quoted boosts, you can boost to a Friendica group through this method.Lemmy could easily support this feature.
Are Lemmy devs aware that this would be a possible way of something to support?
Lemmy devs tend not to be very proactive when implementing interoperability with other fediverse services. I would expect support to pop up in Mbin and/or PieFed first, and possibly Lemmy later.
That said, I would be surprised if they were not aware of the possibility, I just doubt it's a priority at the moment.
Not true IMO, Lemmy is way more after interoperability than for example Mastodon
I thought Lemmy already supported that. I've seen a few Mastodon posts around.
Mastodon users can post to the Threadiverse by tagging a community, but since we don't have "quoted boosts"/quote posts, there's no way of including an existing thread or post when doing so.
