Some notes on Sharkey-Lemmy interoperation

These are some as-I-went observations and notes, so not to be taken as comprehensive. For the most part I think it's pretty similar to Mastodon-Lemmy interactions, but others can chip in with anything different or that I may not have encountered.

Thought it'd be a good use of Sharkey's page feature to share like this. Pass it along if you find it helpful, or copy and improve and share your own variation!

However there's a catch to posting to lemmy communities. It's broken right now if there's also a user with the same name as a community.

I've heard about this before and it sounds highly unfortunate. As I understand it there is no simple fix either.

Yeah, when I ran into it and realized what was happening, I was a little stumped on what a possible solution could be too. All that comes to mind are some clunky workarounds unfortunately.
