How do I follow/subscribe to them on lemmy?
-
Lemmy currently doesn't allow you to follow individuals. As kbin does, it is probably a feature we will see in the future.
For now you'd need a Mastodon, kbin or Calckey account (I recommend the last one).
-
You can actually browse individual profiles from places like Mastodon on Lemmy. They get interpreted as a community where each post is one "toot" from that user.
Though comments and upvotes don't proliferate back to the original platform, they live on your instance.

How do I see lemmy from calckey ?
-
Try searching for the community like you do a person. @ name @ instance
-
Search for a community just like you would elsewhere.
This place would be
@fediverse@kbin.social, so you'd search that to find this place on the fediverse. Lemmy communities use the same format.-
As far as I can tell, this would subscribe you to a user with the username "fediverse". I've already seen a user and a community both named "cat" on the same instance, so that could be a problem if calckey doesn't differentiate between
@fediverse@kbin.socialandfediverse@kbin.social.-
That is a known bug at the moment. I believe there is a fix in review right now but Codeberg seems to be down.

@Holyginz, I would think you can do like on kbin, since it seems like the standard. Just guessing. Go to the user page on your instance then follow them.
To get to the user page go to:
https://yourInstance.social/u/@username@aDifferentInstance.social
For you go to https://lemmy.world/u/@wikimediafoundation@wikimedia.social

Lemmy doesn't have the functionality like Kbin does. It's one reason why Kbin exists.
