@fishcharlie @swalchemist @gracjan @christianselig yeah I think the answer depends on what you want out of it.
For most casual consumption scenarios the existing account is fine. For *using* and creating content in that other service, you'd need to create an account
@pixelpusher220 @fishcharlie @gracjan @christianselig I'm fine with it having a different UI. But looking at https://join-lemmy.org/, I see no obvious way to get to the content. I tried copying and pasting a domain name on the Lemmy servers page, and then I could browse content and find usernames to paste back on my Mastodon server to follow them.
