@Glamorous9899 I use a personal Friendica instance as my primary method of interacting with Lemmy. I chose Friendica for many of the reasons you mentioned: I can follow Lemmy instances and people on Mastodon. I can also follow RSS feeds. Those 2 things make up most of the content I want to follow. If there's a particular subreddit I like, but don't want to browser reddit directly, I can use the subreddit's built-in RSS as well.
The biggest drawbacks is you don't always see all of the comment history of posts, and I imagine this has to do with which instances have federated with my Friendica instance.
In addition, as you can see from this post, if I interact with a post directly it uses the fullname I use on Friendica.
Besides that last little hiccup, Friendica is an ideal solution for me. It's a great "one stop shop" so-to-speak.
