I have only observed Lemmy->Mastodon and Mastodon->Lemmy
If I follow a community, in mastodon it will show as boosts and will show Title + link to the original post with all the comments also as boosts. It has some probability of working. Not always. I couldn't get hashtags to work.
If someone mentions some lemmy community it will get federated into that community but only into first mentioned community. The first line of a microblog will be set as a title. When users write hashtags and mentions first, it will be unreadable. Not all replies will get federated back and forth.
P.S. I have seen kbin [R.I.P] (Long Live Mbin) posts on lemmy and it worked good
Wait, you can follow Mastadon from Lemmy already? How?
~~You can federate and respond but not really follow.~~
Okay, but how.
I just checked. You can respond if someone mentioned the lemmy community and there is a post on lemmy to respond to and that response will be seen on mastodon.
So no way to pull Mastadon hosted content into Lemmy.
I didn't see a bug report for it. Feel free to file one on github.
