Can I use the same domain name for Lemmy and Mastodon? (lemmy.world)

I'd like to self-host Lemmy or kbin and mastodon. I know I could use different subdomain for each, but I'd much rather keep it short. Something tells me, however, that other instances might not be happy about it.

Is it doable?

By no means an expert but how do you want to set it up? Different subdomains or folders?

I think subdomains are actual FQDN’s and will not cause issues. Folders might be an interesting experiment.

pretty sure federation protocol is looking for :

i haven't seen instances use a sub-directory
