A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Is my understanding correct that from certain instances of Lemmy I can also access mastodon's federated links?
Actually, as long as the Mastodon and Lemmy servers are federated with each other, you can access Lemmy from Mastodon (and the other way around). If they aren't federated yet, you can 'force' that federation by visiting a community via the search engine. That should start the whole federation process, unless of course either one of the servers has decided to 'defederate' with the other server.
But in Mastodon you can use
@community@serverin the searchbar, and you will see all the responses on Mastodon. So for example,@lemmy@lemmy.mlor@Technology@beehaw.org.Is it possible to federate the whole site, or do you have to do it by community specifically?
Federation is always done on instance level. What I mean by that is being able to communicate between instance A and instance B. Whether or not data is actually being shared from instance A to instance B depends a user on instance A is subscribed to a community on instance B (or vice versa).
I hope that clears up a few things :)
