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?

    There is no need to login to other instances. Just browse them, and if you want to comment something copy the link and paste it in threads search (Lemmy) or microblog (mastadon) and you can interact with them. I hope in the future apps will make browsing much easier and seamless without copying and pasting links around.

    There are browser add-ons for the desktop that help with that process.
