If software on the fediverse such as lemmy and kbin are connected similar to emails, how come I cannot use kbin with my lemmy account and have to create a new one for kbin specifically? Is this just a bug, or have I misunderstood how the fediverse works?

    That’s not how it works.

    You cant log into hotmail.com with your gmail.com.

    You can however use your gmail.com account and talk to the hotmail.com user, by sending an email.

    You can look/browse other fediverse services content, your can star/like it, comment on it.

    But you can’t log into that service.
