Lemmy & Mastodon are completely different beasts with different formatting and function. This is a terrible abuse of ActivityPub IMO and degrades both services
100% agree. My local instance has a lot of posts coming from Mastodon and I simply don’t like it. I wonder if they even see my replies.
Imo, AP was created with a great deal of integration in mind without being prescriptive. It’s hard to gauge what abuse really is when the feature in question is marginal and a bit inconvenient to use as other commenters have pointed out. I look at it more as a “look what we can do” type of thing.
