can we see other mastodon instances?
@CobaltVelvet I was able to create an account on a different instance with the same username and email, how will mentions work if there are multiple users with the same username?
@Rineroth use @<username> for the same instances, @<username>@<instance> for someone else (it works a bit like emails for that part)
@CobaltVelvet @Rineroth Like this :)
that's cool. I still need to wrap my head around how it works but so far I like it
@Rineroth I think that's the "Federated Timeline" part. But I've been wrong before.
@czmilosz I was able to create an account on a different instance with the same username and email, how will mentions work if there are multiple users with the same username?
@Rineroth I believe that's the @username.node convention?
@Rineroth I found you on my global timeline.
@Rineroth we can see other mastodon instances and instances on GNU social as well
@Rineroth follows and mentions work between instances, there's also the federated timeline that works with all instances already connected to this one
