I’m doing it with Calckey myself, but Communities basically act like users. You can search and follow them. You’ll get to see posts in that community in your feed, and you can make top-level comments and reply to direct replies on your own comments, but if you want to see comments that aren’t responding to you you’ll have to switch over to Lemmy.
I basically just browse my own Calckey front page now and then when I see a Lemmy thread that looks interesting I open it in Lemm.ee or Blahaj.zone.
On Calckey you just search for @NAME@INSTANCE, whether the name is a community or an individual you’ll be able to follow them!
Edit: I made a little VIA macro, so now I’ve got a hotkey that grabs the link in my current clipboard and searches it in lemm.ee. Made it a lot easier!
Updated this so that I can open a new tab and then press it, swapping to the other tab and taking the url from there. That way I don’t interrupt my scrolling. Much nicer.
How do you subscribe or follow a lemmy community from Mastodon?
