@Benjamin account removal can be done on https://my.telegram.org if I recall right.
Also...someone OTHER THAN ME linked this? That's rare
Matrix is currently in a bit of a weird place as funding is low. Its alright, but dont expect Telegram-level UX. Element is also re-making their mobile apps as part of Element X.

Mastodon isn't Lemmy, is it? 🤦♂️
I found a link to a mastodon thread... And upon much closer inspection, I do believe that's you over there, too.
I'm apparently very ignorant on this. Lemmy... Mastodon... Matrix...
@Benjamin they're all connected :)
I'm writing to you from mastodon (hence all my replies start by pinging you)
Lemmy does format some things in lemmy-specific ways, but other than that all our posts can be viewed anywhere, and I can slap any lemmy thread into my mastodon UI to reply to whoever I want
Are you serious? 😳🤦♂️😓
I was on Mastodon originally, but the app I was beta testing was a Lemmy client, so I made a new account (my Mastodon creds didn't work)
Methinks I should find a new app. Arg.
@Benjamin
No I am not saying accounts are portable, but the content is. Your mastodon app has no idea how to handle Lemmy, and your Lemmy app has no idea how to handle Mastodon
BUT the servers that you're signing up to? They know how to share the content between eachother. That is because they all use the ActivityPub standard to exchange posts and account data.
So Lemmy and Mastodon connect to the same content, but different log in servers?
Do I need to do anything to see those other people?
Oh boy, I've got a lot to learn.
@Benjamin its basically automatic e-mail in the sense that it doesn't matter what e-mail provider you're on but you can still contact each other across mail providers
Here you can substitute mail providers with social media platforms, and it happens ✨automagically✨, without anyone doing anything
To put this into perspective, I see hundreds of posts that aren't by people that signed up on wetdry.world on my home feed, and I can still interact with them, yet wetdry.world is my home.
Maybe the little explanation video on https://fediverse.info helps
Email. That helped immensely.
Gmail can mail Yahoo, but Yahoo can't directly see my Gmail account name, unless we directly interact first.
I think that sums it up.
So I can use either "CLIENT" to communicate across the Fediverse, but my credentials only work on the server I created them at.
I think I got it. I'm watch the link later👍
