I noticed many new individuals joining following the Reddit API news. Do you have any questions about this website, Lemmy, or the fediverse?

    So if I understand this correctly, if I have a Lemmy account do I also need to create a separate Mastodon account if I want to join Mastodon?

      Yes you would need to sign up for a Mastodon account if you wanted to use it. Right now most of the functionality with mastodon is one-way (they can comment on Lemmy posts, but we can’t comment on their posts, unless they post it to a Lemmy community).

      Yeah, accounts on the Fediverse aren’t universal. A mastodon account is not the same as a Lemmy account. They’re interoperable though.
