    I’ve found that my lemmy.world account can be followed by my mastodon.social account. I wonder if it is possible to log in to a mastodon client with it?

      No. Lemmy and Mastodon federate using the ActivityPub protocol, but that’s not good enough for making mobile apps or other clients. They each have their own API for their apps and an app made for one federated platform won’t be able to log into another platform’s server/instance.
