@Cameri I came to Android to use rif for reddit. It's gone now and now i'm using the mastodon app chatting with everyone on lemmy.world and other instances. I have a main account on lemmy.world but i just use it to moderate my sub check my notifications and that's about it. I really like my S23 though

I'm still new to the fediverse, how would you use the Mastodon app to chat with people on lemmy.world and other lemmy instances? Would you be able to read threads in different communities like /c/android etc?

@ipkpjersi Yes. You basically get the community name in mastodon do a search for it then follow that community. Once in the mastodon app the home feed will be post from that community from wherever that instance/community is. You can the comment and reply all that good stuff. You can't creat post or have the lemmy.ml or other instance front page just your own instance front page

That sounds really cool, thanks!

You can tell he's using Mastodon to interact with this thread because his comments all start with @ing the user he's replying to.
