Sure.
But if you were a Misskey user, you'd appreciate being able to interact with Mastodon posts. Or if you were a Kbin user, you'd want to interact with Lemmy posts.
Only because it's mostly broken. In a world where these features are fully functional, this is absolutely a killer feature. Lemmy has particularly bad support among the broader fediverse and that's certainly impacting how much of it you see.
It just seems like cross-posting with more confusing terms for normal people.
What I'd really like is one single sign-on for everything that was federated to my original Fediverse service instance. I should be able to just go to some Pixelfed/Mastodon/Lemmy/etc instance, log in with @nottelling@lemmy.world and I'm just magically makes me a user there. (Assuming instance permissions and federation settings and such, of course.)
I get it, account management and implied trust is hard to do. But that's what this feature should be.
I hate the Mastodon/similar integration for posts. Hashtag filled garbage most of the time.
The Mastodon posts are nearly always higher quality and more on topic than posts from lemmy users.
At the very least, simply mentioning a community shouldn't result in a post here. There is no shortage of "Just installed @[software]!" posts with absolutely nothing of value.
Hope you don't live enough to watch me raping your kids

Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!
How voting works:
Vote the opposite of the norm.
If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.
Guidelines:
Tag your post, if possible (not required)
- If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
- If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].
Rules:
1. NO POLITICS
Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.
2. Be civil.
Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Please also refrain from gatekeeping others' opinions.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...
Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.
5. No trolling.
This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.
Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/
