Maybe there should also be one for Bluesky->Mastodon lol

Keep that up for a few more months

I’m not confident that the internet’s attention span is that long, unfortunately

To view a link on your own instance, paste it into your instance’s search.

Example with a link to a similar discussion: https://lemmy.ca/post/38173834 (paste that URL into your Lemmy’s search, like this)

(edit: I’ve been told that Lemmy is a bit smarter than I thought when doing those searches)

The problem with hashtags is that the post itself won’t be federated unless someone is following the user who made the post (or someone who boosted it). So Lemmy would be unable to see those posts anyways.

I have thought about a simple ActivityPub service that pulls a Mastodon RSS feed of a hashtag and boosts them all from a group/community actor, I think that would work for following from Lemmy.
