    This right here is my question as well. Currently I have created an account and login for Lemmy, Kbin (because there were some instances I couldn’t see from Lemmy even though my native instance isn’t being blocked or blocking any others), and Mastodon. Do I need a minimum of a Lemmy and Mastodon account to access everything or will one work across all the fediverse?

      You don’t need different accounts. I have an account in Mastodon where I follow a community from Lemmy for example.

      The thing is you have to manually search and follow communities and people from other services.

      So if you go to Mastodon search bar and type “@linux@lemmy.ml” for example, it will show you the community content as a Mastodon profile and you can follow it and see the posts on your timeline.
