As far as I can tell from my venture into Mastodon’s feeds, the demographics of that part of Fediverse isn’t that different from what Lemmy has: the same political takes, FOSS stuff, “big corpos bad”, etc.
I wonder, is there anything that Mastodon excels at that Lemmy just doesn’t provide? For example, I noticed that there are game developers and artists posting their stuff on Mastodon. Not many game developers (or any creatives, really) on Lemmy though.
for me it doesn’t work. tested on both troet.cafe and wien.rocks mastodon instances. neither following my user account ( https://feddit.org/u/gandalf_der_13te ) or following a typical lemmy community ( https://feddit.org/c/dach ) works. both appear in the search results, but their feeds are empty.
edit: update: sometimes it does work but results are inconsistent. probably it was fixed in a recent update and some mastodon / lemmy instances just haven’t updated to it yet. that would be good news ❤️
I can see plenty of your posts from my test .social account. You probably just need to follow your account to fetch the posts.
