I've been researching for the past week Threadiverse projects (Lemmy at first, then PieFed and now Mbin) with the goal of testing out their interoperability with the rest of the Fediverse.
Apologies in advance if this is the third post you see from me - this one is my first in Mbin.
I wonder if you have any insights regarding the differences between the 3 - advantages/disadvantages and opinions on your favorite project?
I'm also interested to see if Mbin manages to federate mentions (unlike Lemmy and PieFed who falls short). So for the purposes of this test, I'm mentioning:
If I can help with your tests in some way, let me know. I manage most types of fediverse software including Fedia.io, though Iβve not yet tried piefed. I think your question is prompting me to give it a try.
Thank you so much Jerry, I really appreciate! π
I'm really enjoying Fedia.io and I'm delighted that my Mastodon (thread) mention showed up in my Mastodon notifications. It's the first time I managed to get it to work on the "Threadiverse" (the same experiment failed on Lemmy and PieFed).
Interestingly, the same thing didn't work for my Lemmy.world account or Friendica.
Iβm not surprised about friendica. I will ask the mbin developers to take a look. I will also take a look at lemmy - I know federation works with lemmy.world - I get enough reports about their users here to know that for sure :) I just donβt know how mentions are handled.
Communication between Friendica and Mbin (mentions) doesnβt work at all. And Iβm finding some strange bugs when it comes to federation of Mbin comments that mention Lemmy.world accounts (some show up, others donβt).
But the communication between Mbin and Mastodon is EXCELLENT β¨πβ¨
Interesting, le sigh. Unfortunately I could not make account mentions federate AT ALL from Mbin β Friendica. I'll try the other way around to see if anything happens (Friendica β Mbin)
