How do I use this account on lemmy and vice-versa?
Is the upvote of lemmy the same as favorite of mastodon? (they do not sync) if not then what metric are these two uniquely gauged?

You just did. By @ mentioning a community you created a post. I'm replying to your post from Lemmy. You can follow the community on mastodon just by using the same @ address as you did in your post. You can follow Lemmy users, but they can't follow you.

Does the @ mention blast every “technology” community across all federated instances? How did it get posted here without naming a specific instance?

You have to qualify what instance I'm your @ mention. Clients are just truncating it since we're already here on this instance.

Are comments visible in mastodon? Would mastodon comments show up in Lemmy?

Neat, I don't see your comment though in Mastodon. I assume only first and second level threaded comments are sync'd? I'm not too familiar with Mastodon, so maybe this is expected?

If you follow the OP link you should see our comment chain now. Federation isn't realtime. :)

The Lemmy and Mastodon services aren't great at being interoperable. There's at least one service out there that's trying to interconnect all (or most) fediverse services, but I don't remember enough about to turn up the the name in search.

You can only browse Lemmy communities through your Mastodon client (look at/follow @technology@lemmy.world where you see posts and replies) You need an account on a Lemmy server to be able to see this community from a Lemmy client.
