      If Mastodon got it, wouldn’t any other federated platform get it, including Lemmy?

        The only way to know for sure is to test. I found I could subscribe to peertube channels using lemmy, but that wasn’t intended and just a happy side effect of the common activitypub protocol.

        I recall seeing new videos and being able to comment but not be able to create new posts that would federate since that wouldn’t make a lot of sense.

        It should work, I was more commenting on another missed opportunity to bring the platform name to the mainstream audience.

        Mastodon is more or less well-known nowadays thanks to articles talking about it for years, it would be nice to have the same for Lemmy

        Depends on if they expose Person actors or Group actors. (so, probably not considering it doesn’t make much sense to consider a blog as a Group)

        In theory a blog could xpost to a Lemmy community via mentioning it but I have no idea if Wordpress does mentions like that.

          In WordPress, one blog can have many authors, so it does make sense to consider it a group
