@n3cr0 @stopthatgirl7 ok, I just got a notification that @stopthatgirl7 favourited my post -- I guess you did that my "upvoting" the comment that appeared on Lemmy. This is how mastodon and lemmy users can interact with each other.

Only I’m using kbin, not lemmy. Kbin and lemmy handle federation differently, so we’ll have to wait and see when someone on lemmy interacts.

@stopthatgirl7 @n3cr0 ok, so it's even cooler then -- we are having a conversation across three different platforms: me on mastodon, you on kbin and @n3cr0 on lemmy. Welcome to the #Fediverse!

Plus I can follow all of you from all those instances, over on pixelfed (the Instagram analogue), thought I have zero idea how things federate in that direction as I haven't used pixelfed much yet.

Dozens of websites all speaking one language behind the scenes!

turns out I have a pixelfed instance too :-)

Ok straight up how did you comment from it? I tried with mine before making my comment (cause I was gonna do it from pixelfed like you, but I couldn't figure out in the UI how to get to this convo, just a person.

Edit: I literally just made an account last night lol
