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.

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.
