Hey … you’re posting to lemmy from mastodon … that’s awesome!!

Just a few small tips for making it work better on the lemmy side of things (mostly post formatting).

First … you can look at how your post appears on lemmy here: https://startrek.website/post/363006

Basic formatting tips:

1. Treat the first line of you post as the title. You can see that your whole post, including hashtags, is on one line, and so creates a large messy title over here.
2. Keep hashtags out of the title as they create links that are messy
3. The next lines are treated as the body of the post … you can put everything else here including hashtags (which will work well) etc.
4. If you want to tag anyone else, make sure to tag them after the lemmy community, as lemmy only pays attention to the first tag (which is a measure to prevent spam)

I wrote a little demo of what works here: https://hachyderm.io/@maegul/110483509521476095

Otherwise … really appreciate the effort to try to bridge these two spaces!
