The other way around. You can subscribe to/follow Lemmy/Kbin communities from mastadon accounts. e.g. from mastodon you can follow @[email protected] like a regular user.

The killer app will be the ability to follow hashtags like communities from Lemmy/Kbin. Its early days.

Having said this, when you follow a community from mastodon, you get posts and replies all in a big jumble (readability of said jumble is up to your Masto client's implementation), and posts/comments appear as boosts from the @community user.

Thank you for the explanation, this makes a lot more sense.
