If you tag a lemmy community in a mastodon toot it posts to the community.

Dunno if there's a way to repost other people's toots to lemmy though, never tried

Same way you'd tag a user on lemmy, just tagging the community instead.

@community@instance.url

I've never tried it myself, but I've seen it been done a couple times

Hmm, does the other direction work? @merc@techhub.social wants to know. (That's me).

@vodka @merc@sh.itjust.works

It works, and I think I can reply to the thread via Mastodon. But, I don't get the full thread, just one post back in the thread.

I guess mastodon only fetches up one level in a thread then, still neat
