Using my kbin.social account to login into other fediverse apps (kbin.social)

I was under the assumption that I can use one fediverse account across all ther fediverse apps, but this doesn't seem to be the case.

I.e. I downloaded the mastodon android app and tried to select kbin.social as the server, but it gives an error.

Same for jerboa, it won't let me connect to kbin.social, saying invalid credentials.

Is this something on the roadmap or am I simply wrong with my assumption?

You can only use your account to log in to your instance. And the mastodon app only supports mastodon instances and jerboa is only for lemmy.

You can use the fediverse to interact with content from mastodon and lemmy from your home instance on kbin. For example I am writing this comment from lemmy.

Ok, how do I interact with my Mastodon and Lemmy accounts?
