        It IS a Twitter-like site. It displays posts in more of a Twitter style. That being said - it is also part of the Fediverse, so theoretically you should be able to see all federated communities on any fediverse instance of your choosing.

        Personally, I have a kbin.social account and a mastodon.social account. I’m doing this because Mastodon doesn’t really present threads from kbin or lemmy in an easily digestable way, so I will use kbin as my reddit replacement, and Mastodon to replace Twitter.

          So if I had the mastodon app, is there anything I can do with that? Or what would you be signed into to reply back? (Ie) I’m signed into my lemmy.fmhy.ml account, where would I sign into mastodon… tho, I’d like to create another instance to use more like my previous Reddit account

            So you would have to sign up for a Mastodon instance to log on to the Mastodon app (I.e. Mastodon.social, mstdn.social, mstdn.es, etc). Similar to the fact that you’re signed in to a Lemmy instance right now on lemmy.fmhy.com there are other Lemmy instances such as lemmy.ml, lemmy.world, Beehaw.org, etc.

            Your Mastodon account would be completely separate from your Lemmy account.

            Does that make sense? Not sure if I explained that we’ll.

              It makes sense they are separate, but I’m just not following the part where you’d sign in the mastodon app… (when to me it acts like twitter)

              I do have a mastodon account btw

        Haha tried making an account on kbin.social - can’t log in.

        The future is tomorrow.

      Hello mastodon user. I’m seeing this on kbin.social as part of a “lemmy.world” thread. On kbin we have magazines (like reddit’s subreddits). This magazine is “[email protected]”. Your post is showing up as a comment in this thread. I’m doing a comment reply/response to yours.
