On-brand implies this is typical of them and has been done by them in the past. What do you even mean by saying this is on-brand?
I'll bite.
It's like the early internet, you have to move around and eventually you'll find what you are looking for. Follow that link! Search engines were useful for that back in the day.
I bet we'll have similar services even if we do not have them just yet.
@osma if kbin doesn't have a group you're looking for, then make it on kbin. maybe it's just my newbie kbinaut perspective but kbin groups come first, federation second.
I'm not sure why Mastodon posts always end up looking so bad on Lemmy. The title is always gored and the post always has hashtags that do nothing in Lemmy. Just because they're technically cross compatible doesn't mean they should be.
Mostly because the people writing them don't understand how their post will be parsed, and the post lives simultaneously on Lemmy / Kbin and Mastodon.
Lemmy just takes the first paragraph from the post as the title. So if the poster knows that, they can format it like:
Title title title
Body of post
I think it uses the tweet content as both the post title and body when Lemmy tries to display masto tweets. Maybe the title should just be "Mastodon post from @username" tbh
Lemmy has keyword based search lol
Open the menu, select Communities, set the filter to All, then type in words that you like.
I wonder if the reason they thought there was no search because they're posting from Mastodon 🤷♀️
