I am still learning this whole thing and I ended up creating accounts here and on Mastodon. Is that necessary or do I automatically have a Mastodon username with my Lemmy? I used the same stuff on both accounts, can I merge them or something?

Edit: thanks everyone, I can’t respond to each comment while I’m at work, but I appreciate every one of you!

    You can interact on both platforms using one account, but the best experience is to have an account on each - Lemmy communities don’t work very well on Mastodon, and Mastodon users can’t be followed from Lemmy. Kbin is the middle ground which can do both.

      Kbin also turns all your upvotes into reblogs, so you’ll be spamming Mastodon users whenever you like posts
