One can follow Lemmy (and I presume Kbin, though that I have not tested myself) communities directly from any other fedi instance. For example, I am following [@technology](https://beehaw.org/c/techno
One can follow Lemmy (and I presume Kbin, though that I have not tested myself) communities directly from any other fedi instance. For example, I am following @technology directly from my account here.
Now that Lemmy/Kbin have become pretty active, this might be a decent way of getting new fedi users to have a better on-boarding experience.
Just suggest a few active communities to them, and bam, plenty of interesting stuff gets boosted into their timeline. đ€
@rysiek what do you get from that feed? I only get a set of "boosts", that seem like they're comments to the articles themselves? Not sure I'm getting any of the articles. I've also tried following a couple of other channels/magazines/"groups"? on beehaw.org, and they're all showing up as empty (I'm on glitch-soc, not standard-mastodon, though).
Also, the docs on beehaw said to add !technology@beehaw.org instead of [@technology](https://beehaw.org/c/technology) ? But the leading @ worked from my instance-search-bar.
anyway, sorry for info-dump, but I'm curious about other people who've gotten successfully from mastodon to lemmy/kbin
