    Does anyone know if / how well the federation between Iceshrimp and Lemmy works?

    -❔ How are posts from Lemmy (with headline + URL) displayed on Iceshrimp?

    -❔ Can you find Lemmy posts in Iceshrimp by searching for the URL?

    -❔ Can you follow Lemmy communities from Iceshrimp?

    -❔ Can you post to Lemmy communities from Iceshrimp?

    The first three points work with Sharkey (one of the Misskey/Firefish forks), but unfortunately posting does not.

      I’m not familiar enough (or at all) with C#, but AFAICT, it could make an instance more stable, as firefish and misskey have struggled with handling a decent amount of users and C# could be a faster system for the server.

      Also, a re-write sometimes is a good thing. And, developers have different preferences for languages, so having a C# project around enables C# devs to more easily contribute to the fedi.

      ASP.NET Core (web framework for C#) is one of the best available, when you need great performance. Also, C# is pretty popular and that means potentially more contributors.
