BTW #Linux #Furries, did you know there is community for Linux #Furs on Lemmy? Now you do! Come join the LinuxFurs community on pawb.social!

You don't have to be a member of pawb.social to subscribe to #LinuxFurs, you can subscribe to it from any Lemmy instance. You can actually follow it from Mastodon even, at @linuxfurs, though I'm not 100% sure how well that works. Regardless, you have many different ways of following along.

Come and let's leave our paw prints across the Linux world! :blobfoxcomputer:

Lol, ok the formatting between mastodon and Lemmy isn't exactly great, but oh well. This post is mostly meant for Mastodon.

I believe the first line becomes the title, so if you start the post with a short non-formatted line it will work just fine on both platforms.

Correct. The requirements are:

  • put a link to the community anywhere in a Mastodon toot and a post is automatically generated on Lemmy
  • the first line becomes the title/headline
  • additionally, a recent change in Lemmy removed Markdown formatting from headlines, so instances that are sufficiently up-to-date will have links and hashtags show up as literal text instead of links: https://pawb.social/comment/1624631
