Title. I host my things on Pixelfed so I wanna try how well will it crosspost to Lemmy. Also a cute robot from Infinity the Game.

    Nice clean paint job.

    The cross post is just like a link to the pixel fed post. I wonder if it was an image, would I see an image thumbnail on Lemmy? That’d be cool.

      Thanks! Yes, this is just a link pasted into the “link” field of the Lemmy post. I got a hint that tagging a Lemmy community in a Pixelfed (or Mastodon) post should create a post there, then maybe embedding would work correctly. I tried that with another post so let’s wait and see if it federates.

      I have “discovered” the video form of presenting miniatures and I have the “never looked back” feeling. 15 minutes of setup, 2-3 minutes of filming, 5 clicks in Shotcut and I’m done with a post. No need to work on several images to fit them to a format or color-correct…
