Suppose I want to subscribe to: https://masto.ai/@rbreich

How do I do that from the web browser version of lemmy.world? I try going to that site and can’t subscribe unless I’m a member of masto.ai. If I search for user on lemmy I find him, but there’s no obvious subscribe mechanism.

Thanks!

    Can’t yet, afaik, though mastodon users can follow lemmy users. I searched around a bit trying to figure out a way, and didn’t find one

    So looks like it’s not possible at the moment? I can’t seem to find a kbin/lemmy/mastadon combined client for PC or Android?

    Argh, this is why I can’t ever get into Linux/BSD, etc. Just so many variants, and they go through cycles on which is popular.

      You can subscribe to masto users on kbin. No kbin apps yet, so you can use it only in a browser

      RTFM: how do i know this: i read it somewhere and tried it. No free lunch, just patience and reading

    I’m no expert here, but that looks like a Mastodon link, and Lemmy itself doesn’t federate with Mastodon. They both use activity pub, but it’s not the same content. I think kbin does both.
