Is there a way to set it up so [email protected] can be a lemmy account and also a mastadon account? I seen people using subdomains like [email protected] and [email protected] is this nessasary? Could u also set up a matrix account with the same [email protected]? If not what woukd be requured to change to make this possible?
Has anyone actually done it? I cant seem to find any decent guides on how to do it?
Each fediverse service is different. Matrix has it’s own webfinger configuration, as does diaspora, and mastodon. However, it looks like all ActivityPub services use the same webfinger configuration, which means that this method doesn’t work for donations trying to reference [email protected] for activitypub. I would presume that the first AP service you have listed in the response is going to be the account that each AP service will federate with.
Here’s a little bit about what I’m talking about:
