From what I understand, andi might be wrong because this is just what I’ve picked up from my few days on kbin, it’s more like you can read and respond to things on other sites, but only after you tell it to look for it, first. Like, you can copy a link to a kbin community into Mastodon, then tell your Mastodon account to follow out. It will then pop into your Mastodon home feed, and you can reply like you would a post on Mastodon.
But you can’t actually make a new post that goes to Mastodon from kbin - you’d need your own account on a Mastodon server to do that. Same way, I think you wanted to post a new post to kbin or Lenny, you couldn’t do it FROM Mastodon. You’d need to do it from a kbin or lemmy account.
