YSK: When making posts on Lemmy/Kbin always put at the end some hashtags related to your post topic.

So users from Mastodon and Pixelfed can interact with your post without even need to use their Lemmy/Kbin account or learn about “how to use the ActivityPub”.
This also helps to have more content avaliable across the Fediverse due to better discoverability.

    When visiting another country, I try to set aside any habits from home that conflict with the local rules and conventions. It doesn’t matter if the same language is used in both.

    I do the same when posting to another platform. It doesn’t matter if the same network protocols are used in both.

    What you wrote would make sense if we were talking about Mastodon messages that just happened to be seen on Lemmy, but as already stated, we aren’t. “When making posts on Lemmy/Kbin” is the key phrase here.

      I totally get this sentiment. But think of the Fediverse more like the United States. It’s all one big country, made up of different states that do things mostly the same, but still in their own way. California is your Mastodon, New York is your Pixelfed, Kbin is kind of in the middle of things so that can be Kansas, Lemmy is clearly Florida… etc. I’m not sure what adequate Canadian province comparisons would be, but you get the gist, I think. How much do you really change your personal conventions when travelling between states/provinces?

        Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn’t work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !youshouldknow@lemmy.world

        @Chozo @youshouldknow @ono Dude, a piece of advice.
        Stop discussing with him. That dude is clearly stubborn.
        He’s clearly the kind of person that can have progress in front of him, but he prefers to have what already is used to.
        If something that I’ve learnt is to stop a discussion with someone that’s clearly an idiot.

        Sorry for the offense, but he made clear that he’s not open minded. Which is ironic for an user of a progressive platform like the fediverse.
