    I follow a couple Lemmy communities from Mastodon. If you create a Mastodon account and search for @technology@lemmy.world you can subscribe to new posts, which get boosted into your feed. You can upvote by favoriting a post and you can reply from Mastodon and it’ll show up on Lemmy.

    I can also follow Lemmy users, like by searching for mxwarp@lemmy.world and your posts (but not comments) will show up in my feed.

        It’s not the best experience, but it works. It also means that Mastodon users can boost Lemmy posts and other Mastodon users may wind up commenting.
