        Lol forgot to add - kbinauts like Derpy point and me and rakyat (on our kbin accounts) had been replying to monyet posts in the early days lagi. But federation still hinky, that’s why I have alt here. Other masto account holders too I think.

        may be due to the locked account thing mentioned in the profile. so, if you’re not a follower, you can’t dm, and I don’t think lemmy allows you to follow individual users.

          I see. Too bad then. This whole fediverse thing is exciting, but so much to learn at the same time.

            (next time also, if you see it in a federated location and wanna bring it back here to reply, and this should work, copy the comment ori url (always hosted on their own account) and paste in search bar. When fetched, you can reply :))

              this is related to what I posted here, it’s just that now we can do it for mastodon comments as well :-)

              at least those comments replying to original posts in lemmy. it would be nice to be able to pull in arbitrary toots to reply to, now that would be interesting!

                what you can do now is reply to sohkamyung’s post publicly (if you want to), instead of via dm, then watch in awe as the reply reaches mastodon :-)

                    just click the reply button on that post (just like how you replied to me).

                    you reply to it like a normal lemmy post, and the server sends it to mastodon for you, that’s the magic!

                    edit: click reply on our instance, not on mastodon

        Seems like the chain of events was:

        1. sohkamyung shared article on mastodon
        2. You saw the article on mastodon and shared over here
        3. Weecious commented here
        4. Weecious’s reply appears on my mastodon since I’m subscribed to the channel over there
        5. I boosted her reply on mastodon
        6. sohkamyung saw it and responded on mastodon

        That’s the magic of the fediverse hahaha
