The idea is cool with all the apps interconnecting, but where do I go to actually see this in practice. Does the cross communication only work on platforms like Mbin/piefed, or am I not seeing something.
I keep hearing thanks to activity pub posts here can be seen and replied to from elsewhere, but I haven’t seen it.
Even though apps interconnect it’s a good idea to use the best client for the service. But, sure - I can start following “@3dmvr@lemm.ee” from my Mastodon account. It’s also possible to subscribe to a Lemmy group from Mastodon, and reply to it.
But the best user experience is had by creating a Lemmy/Mbin account on such a server and interacting from there - like I am with my fedia.io account here now.
Is fedia.io federating well with the “flagship” servers in the fediverse (pixelfed.social, mastodon.social, lemmy.world, lemmy.ml)? Because the thing that seems important to me if looking at interconnectivity is whether the subscring to a tag on a server actually makes me see what people post under that tag, and hopefully not omit a lot of posts because my instance doesnt know about them existing?
The point is that the more users you have on an instance and the more different and varied accounts/communities they follow, that means more content being pulled into that instance.
Or alternatively the instance might be subscribed to some relay in order to “see” more. But thats probably something that only the admin knows.
