Which is why, if you actually want to discuss something, it’s better to tag a group. For example, if you want to be part of an actual PC gaming community on the Fediverse, it’s better to tag @pcgaming@lemmy.ca than #pcgaming.

This needs to be common knowledge because people new to the Fediverse do not know about groups. Hell, I’d say people who have had Mastodon accounts for years still don’t know. And that’s a shame.

@alsternerd @atomicpoet @fediverse @crossgolf_rebel would be nice if the !group@domain.com reference becomes an ActivityPub standard

@mapto @atomicpoet @fediverse @crossgolf_rebel This could help a lot, yes. :D

I think this is also more of a comprehension problem in the Fediverse or the mastodons that are closing themselves off

If you always think a little outside the box, then #lemmy is already a term.
That's what happens when you shorten communication about the Fediverse to ‘mastodon only’, it excludes so much that would help

@crossgolf_rebel @atomicpoet @fediverse @mapto For me Lemmy is just Reddit build on top of activitypub and just feels like that, while using it with Thunder on Android or even the webinterface given.

@alsternerd@social.alster.space It's also a question of how you use and deploy it yourself
