You just did. By @ mentioning a community you created a post. I'm replying to your post from Lemmy. You can follow the community on mastodon just by using the same @ address as you did in your post. You can follow Lemmy users, but they can't follow you.
@baronvonj no, like use/handle mastodon instance on lemmy client
Theyre two different softwares with two different apis, you can't
The Lemmy and Mastodon services aren't great at being interoperable. There's at least one service out there that's trying to interconnect all (or most) fediverse services, but I don't remember enough about to turn up the the name in search.
You can only browse Lemmy communities through your Mastodon client (look at/follow @[email protected] where you see posts and replies) You need an account on a Lemmy server to be able to see this community from a Lemmy client.
I'm not sure that you can browse a Mastodon instance from a Lemmy client. I don't think you can even browse a Lemmy instance from a different one (that is, see a foreign instance's communities list, or browse their Local feed), only the individual users and communities.
But you can certainly browse a Mastodon user from Lemmy. Here's you: https://programming.dev/u/[email protected]
