I thought we were all one big federated family but I don’t have a deep knowledge of how it all works. I’d like to follow accounts like lowqualityfacts and Georgetakei but I can’t seem to find them by searching.

From Lemmy you can see the accounts, but usually not their content (see note below). @lowqualityfacts@mstdn.social
@georgetakei@universeodon.com
Interaction between Lemmy and Mastodon doesn’t work well because the two services structure their content differently. Lemmy is community based and Mastodon is user based. Lemmy doesn’t have a mechanism to follow an individual user, and Mastodon doesn’t have an analog to communities (afaik).
(Note: In the case of these two accounts, some of their toots are visible because they have been pulled into the !tails@lemmon.website community as part of an experiment to bridge Lemmy and Mastodon.)
