  • A. thank you for answering

    B. yes, your answer is “weird”, but not out of the realm of the fuck-aroundery I expect tinkerers to be doing on the backend.

    C. I’m more interested in why casual users might be doing this, although I think, perhaps, you might have partially answered my question: casual users might not be trying to do this much anymore. this may be mostly due to current technical and UX limitations. also, a lack of apps addressing tis or even understanding the tech or its potential.

    I think, when there was a bigger migration 6 or so months ago, people were interested in getting Mastodon and Lemmy feeds one place and interacting with them in one app, but, now, it’s mostly a hobbyist thing. Perhaps this will change in the future as tinkerers continue to tinker.

    I worked on the UX/UI of a currently-popular Lemmy app a while back, and if it becomes worthwhile, I might like to work on an app that fixes the two. That’s why I’m interested. If you care to share anything meaningful you’ve learned WRT what you’ve gleaned regarding the benefits of brining both into the same UI (both for yourself and what you think a typical user might gain from it), I’d like to hear it.
