Does our mastodon login work on Lemmy? #AskFedi #Lemmy #Mastodon #Fediverse

@CathyBikesBook I think you need a new account in order to use Lemmy, it should federate iirc.
Been a while I have used Lemmy and everything.

[cathybikesbook@mastodon.social]

@colourfuldough hmm okay. Just asking because I want to explore the entirety of the fediverse

@CathyBikesBook @colourfuldough

No. Best to get a Lemmy, Piefed or Mbin account for the threadiverse

The only other Fediverse "social network" I've been able to log into with my Mastodon account is NeoDB

Doing so creates an additional NeoDB identity (visible on both NeoDB & Mastodon) but logged in with my Mastodon ID & sharing its profile

My Mastodon: @klu9
My NeoDB on NeoDB: https://eggplant.place/users/klu9/
My NeoDB on Mastodon: @klu9@eggplant.place

@klu9 hmm. okay. definitely something i'll be exploring. I heard about Lemmy from r/RedditAlternatives

@CathyBikesBook

Lemmy was my 1st Fediverse account, getting off Reddit. I still do the "threadiverse" (Reddit-style posts) but now almost entirely through a Piefed account, which is compatible with Lemmy but has faster development & additional features.

Every now & then I try out yet another aspect of the Fediverse so I've built up a collection of Fedi accounts, https://linksta.cc/@klu9

Might try Friendica (Facebook alternative) or Wafrn (Tumblr alternative) in the future

[cathybikesbook@mastodon.social]

@klu9 yeah i agree with having multiple accounts over various platforms.

@CathyBikesBook @fediverso As far as I know, Login from Mastodon does not work on Lemmy and vice-versa. From my point of view this is a weak point, although we can say the same about e-mail: you can read and write from and to proton, tuta, yahoo, gmail, etc. no matter what mail provider you have. But if you have a gmail account you can't use it to login into yahoo mail.
