Basically just just the title. I thought I read somewhere I can do that, but I don’t see the option to when I find the account in trying to follow. Thanks in advance for any answers
You can follow the submissions via an RSS feed.
For example, if you use the link
Https://lemm.ee/feeds/u/Corr.xml?sort=New
, all your previous posts will be displayed.Instead of lemm.ee you need to specify the instance where the user in question is registered. And instead of
Corr
you have to enter the username. For examplehttps://discuss.tchncs.de/feeds/u/fryboyter.xml?sort=New
. That would be in this case my contributions.That’s helpful, thank you. Sorry to bother with a follow up question, but what do I do with that link/file? I’m not really too sure how to actually follow it
Edit: I’ve figured it out. Just had to download an rss reader. Thanks a bunch for the help, this is very useful
Didn’t try this particular link, but in general, with a feed link, you can plug it in any feeds app and get notified whenever the user posts something. Feeder is a good android RSS feeds app.
Yeah I found that. I just updated my original reply. Thanks :)
Not possible. Try Mastodon for that.
That’s great. Thanks a bunch. That’s what I was thinking but glad to get clarification

That does seem to be the case. That makes a fair amount of sense. Thanks for the extra input :)
ActivityPub protocol makes it possible for them to connect to each other, but each software needs to code the support for each service and like you said they have various mediums, so it doesn’t always make sesne.
Just FYI for anyone new to the Fediverse, you can use any Mastodon app to follow lemmy users’ comments. For example, you can search for @BrikoX@lemmy.zip or @lightsecond@programming.dev to follow our comments on lemmy from Mastodon.
I think it’s possible but it’s more trouble than it’s worth. I recommend using mastodon to follow people and or hashtags
