Possible sure, but aside from the effort to make such a bot, posting to my own community would mean that very few people would see it, aside from those who already follow the blog. I have to pick a lemmy community, at which point I may as well do the rest of the work too. Now maybe I could have an llm analyze my post, fetch a list of communities, and then pick a likely one, but honestly this is getting too complicated
Oh, I figure you make your own community. The Mastodon account grows your blogs awareness. The Lemmy community serves as a place to discuss your blog while also being host to the majority of the conversation. And the blog is the host of the content.
I considered implementing Lemmy comments and theorised I’d post to my own community/instance so I had full moderation control, then cross post that to all the relevant communities.

Doesn’t Lemmy support cross posting?

It does, but the comments in that crosspost would be independent from the comments on the own community.
