 @sommerfeld thanks 
 What? Can you see my reply? Is this real life? 
 @sommerfeld yes it is, I actually used a extension called "Privacy Redirect" 
 Can you see this too? 
 @The: Daniel⚡️ @sommerfeld yup 
 @Tim Apple I don't think you realize the significance of this. Our 2 universes are bridging. We are not from your world and you are not from ours 🤯 
 I really don’t understand how to find anything on Mastodon. It seems too fragmented. Instances don’t talk to eachother and I never got any engagement or sense of community. I do like that there’s a bridge to #nostr, even if I barely understand how that works. 
 I also don't know but I imagine that's how people on mastodon fee about nostr so we have to be fair.
I looked at his NIP05, infered that he was in the social-dot-lol instance, went to that website and searched for timapple. It worked 🤣 
 @sommerfeld @The: Daniel⚡️  On bot Mastodon and Nostr, You have to know who you want to follow. It's harder to find rando cool people. Maybe easier on Nostr since the crowd is a little smaller. But I usually read a blog post, then see if the author is on Nostr or Masto. 
 But if I communicate with someone on one Mastodon instance from nostr and then talk to someone on a different one it looks like it automatically creates a new account for each one. That’s kind of a terrible UX. https://i.nostr.build/DRWa.jpg https://i.nostr.build/RWxB.jpg  
 @The: Daniel⚡️ @sommerfeld I just keep them seperate. 
 I mostly just stay away. Every time I go to Mastodon I feel like I’m using my outside voice in a library.

 @sommerfeld @The: Daniel⚡️ I'm on nostr also, just not bridged ... timapple@iris.to 
 Does anyone know about this? A mastodon account just replied to my reply and @'ed me. I didn't know mostr-dot-pub supported this kind of bridging, THIS INCRDIBLE.

Here's my reply showing up on mastodon:

 @Alex Gleason runs that bridge I believe  
 I think I've seen and interacted with Mastodon accounts here regularly. Global is full of them. Don't know what the exact mechanism is. 
 I follow some matodenians here. But they dont have Ln address. They miss out on all the #zaps
