    I just listened to this episode today. I hardly understand the Fediverse myself but I made it to Lemmy. Am I supposed to be able to use my Lemmy acct for things like the Forkiverse? Is it just tied to Mastodon? I don’t have Mastodon. I guess same question can I access Mastodon through my Lemmy acct?

      Integration between lemmy and mastodon is clunky, I think it’s possible to subscribe and post to lemmy communities from mastodon but there’s no way to follow a mastodon account from lemmy.

    Thanks for sharing. This had a similar vibe like The Darknet Diaries. The beats in between were slapping.

    I don’t know why they would use AI to setup a managed Mastodon host, I think it complicated things way more than doing it manually.

    I am not sure if the experiment is going well if the instance has sat empty and unused for the last 6 months. I guess PJ, Casey, and Kevin already gave up on their micro-blogging instance last year?
