In the Mastodon web interface, you can take the URL of the Lemmy community and paste it into the search bar. After you press Enter, the community should show up, and you can follow it.

Another way to reference the community is using @ notation. For this community, you'd use @technology@beehaw.org in Mastodon.

I use Ivory to access my Mastodon account, and I've found that it doesn't recognize URLs from Lemmy at all. So, the @ notation works best there. Regardless, the Mastodon web interface handles it all properly.

@tarasoraptor@startrek.website Well, I just saw your post on my calckey instance because i subscribed to @technology@beehaw.org

;)

for anyone following lemmy from mastodon, is there any way to sort posts by top/hot?

I tried to look up lemmy communities but the feed in mastodon was basically a chronological dump and not optimal

ideally there would be a client that can do chronological feeds AND the reddit-esque post view where items are ranked somehow

I guess kbin.social is the closest thing but I don’t really like their overall interface and it keeps going down or is super slow

@tarasoraptor Testing replying to Lemmy from mastodon 💾

has anybody been able to do the opposite & subscribe to a mastodon user from lemmy? i've tried to put beehaw.org/c/user@instance.url into the url bar but it doesn't work, neither does putting the full url into search

id@server For community of ska: https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/c/ska it would be ska@lemmy.blahaj.zone the id to use in the search field.
