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?

How is that going to even work, technically?

I think you should try it out just to see what happens. Worst case it doesn’t work, and if it does work there’s a good chance you’ll uncover some bugs that need fixing.

I'd prefer something like SRV dns records, but that's not an option here.
