      I think it’s just that Mastodon posts in Lemmy are weird.

      Toots don’t have titles so it just duplicates the content, and then you have a mess of @ and # tags that don’t make sense in Lemmy.

      Cross-ecosystem federation is cool but also leaves a lot to be desired.

        Some others shared that this is likely a federated mastadon post and that the formatting doesn’t get translated well. To me, this looks like a couple of short comments with links to 3 communities, but no specific content related to the comments. Here’s a screenshot:

        No offense intended.

    You ‘almost’ succeeded? So, it didn’t work?

      @Hammerheart at the time of writing that post I almost succeeded. Sometime after that I did succeed and shared screencast. I’m still improving it and considering writing a Rust applications for that.
