I know that communities don't translate well to Mastodon, I just find it a little odd how it seems to be a firehose of all comments in a community when viewed in Mastodon. I was expecting it to "repost" posts submitted to the community and have comments in the replies to those posts. Just something odd I was thinking about.

So what's the solution in regards to threading comments rather than having them as top level toots?

Use Lemmy to read Lemmy, unless Mastodon implements threading (which they probably won't).

I have a Mastodon account on a niche server that I'm slowly starting to have feelings for and I have a Lemmy account on a niche server that I have feelings for. It's not using one for the other, it's just about being able to have the best federated experience.

Mastodon would have to implement support for this.
