Following #lemmy communities from #mastodon has gotten much better

Version 19.4 introduced automatic hashtag-ing (see https://lemmy.ml/post/16585416)

Posts get federated with a hashtag matching the community name.

The important bit is that comments to posts *don't* get the tags.

Which means you can follow the corresponding tag on mastodon and get a feed only of posts.

If you're starting a community, giving it a unique enough name could help prevent overlap too.

Unfortunately it’s unlikely to come soon as mastodon is a while away from implementing groups and are doing it their own incompatible way.

This tag process works though and I’m happy the lemmy devs implemented it.

Spread the word.
