On the left, the 404 Media Ghost account (@feed @404media.co), as viewed from my GotoSocial account, via Phanpy. On the right, the same account, as viewed from a Mastodon account, also via Phanpy.

What’s interesting is that the GtS account displays the entire text of the article, while the Mastodon account only shows the preview and a link…

You can also follow the same account from PieFed, but currently there’s nothing that comes up.

    yes, and Mastodon has the same issue for Lemmy posts, it’s just Mastodon being bad

    (yea “Phanpy posts” was incorrect by me, it’s just posts from certain platforms)

      As much as I love Mastodon for what it has achieved, I have to also agree that it’s bad . For many reasons, several of which are fundamental in nature. But I digress.

        I think in a vacuum Mastodon is very good, it works really well. But only with itself. They don’t seem very eager to work with other ActivityPub platforms.
