Personally I’d sometimes appreciate it, especially from Lemmy to Mastodon. Sometimes I find something interresting or useful on Lemmy and I’d love to just boost it on my Mastodon. The way it’s now is that I post the link to Lemmy post on my Mastodon and this isn’t nice, f.e. now I have two comment sections (one on Lemmy, one on Mastodon) and if people on Mastodon want to join Lemmy discussion, they need to have Lemmy account.
Also the other way arround (from Mastodon to Lemmy) - sometimes I see screenshots of Mastodon messages. It shouldn’t be like that, we should share the original post directly in Lemmy which would credit the author and we could join discussion
The screenshot shows Mastodon falling back to their “I don’t know your format, this is the best I can come up with” rendering. There are Mastodon forks that would show the post just fine.
This is a Mastodon issue and I believe it may actually be worked on. Lemmy isn’t doing anything wrong here.
