@CiaraNi @EvilCartyen English is allowed in the rules, as pointed out by Carsten. This would be kind of dealbreaker for me, as it's still difficult for me to read in Danish. Writing would be somewhere between embarrassing and illegible. Having a mix of languages helps me slowly increase my Danish intake. I think I'm not the only one in such situation ("there are literally dozens of us!")
I wouldn't want to flood with English posts, though.
Also, rules say that federation is enabled — so it's expected and accepted.
As to what and how to crosspost — probably we'll see some clarifications in community rules ans etiquette. Something like "I just ate a sandwich in # Aarhus" isn't worth a community post. A nice "postcard from Aarhus" is, i'd argue.
Thing like "please add first line as title, the rest will be body when tooting from Masto" are tiny details that can be figured out.
Sorry if my enthusiasm about crossposting caused you to get confused or upset.
@dzm @EvilCartyen All good points. They point to the challenges when separate digital spaces can talk to each other technically, but perhaps not culturally. It would feel like homework to me if I had to think about how headline/body would translate from Mastodon to Feddit, or my ratio of Danish:English toots. I also don't understand a culture where when someone says 'I visited a nice food market!', others feel the need to publicly boo them with an anonymous downvote. To me, that's an odd norm.
@dzm @EvilCartyen I'm just making these observations from my own point of view, I hasten to add! I understand it's a different space with a different culture, I'm not trying to complain or suggest changes as an outsider.
