    I don’t think I’ll ever make a Mastodon account, but I do like the rss feature so had been relying on that to get updates on certain projects. Now just need some Twitter accounts that haven’t moved over to do the same. Some have websites, but don’t even update it and relied solely on twitter to push update.

    Twitter is mainly for self promotion than for users, so this seems pretty disruptive for them than it is for people like me.

      I’ve found that my lemmy.world account can be followed by my mastodon.social account. I wonder if it is possible to log in to a mastodon client with it?

        No. Lemmy and Mastodon federate using the ActivityPub protocol, but that’s not good enough for making mobile apps or other clients. They each have their own API for their apps and an app made for one federated platform won’t be able to log into another platform’s server/instance.
