@selfhosted Stick with Mastadon account or move over to Lemmy instance?

I’m currently self hosting my own mastadon instance, and noticed I can use the same account to post to Lemmy as well using mentions and the fediverse.

Is anybody else using mastadon to post to their lemmy instances? Would it make more sense to host a lemmy instance instead if I intent to post to lemmy more often than mastadon? Let me know your thoughts.

    I have an account on here too lol. Have to use this one to reply to prove this point. I cannot reply to posts on mastadon, nor can I view nested comments. This was exactly the test I needed to make my choice!

    I’m looking at setting up a lemmy server to overwrite the mastadon instance so I can use the same URL. I’m looking at the guide and I’m already a bit lost. (I used a droplet on DigitalOcean to auto install mastadon). If anybody has any additional resources that could help me with my install that would be great!
