Any apps for the whole fediverse? (Lemmy, Kbin and Mastodon?) (sh.itjust.works)

Mastodon has a ton of apps and Lemmy app development is going crazy right now. Are there any apps that can use both Lemmy and Mastodon accounts (and preferably Kbin accounts too)? I know the interfaces may need to be different, but the protocols are the same as far as I understand it, so it seems technically possible.

Fedilab handles mastodon, pixelfed and peertube in one app. It's the most multifunctional app I know of. Pretty impressive, but it doesn't do lemmy/kbin, or even misskey.

But isn't it true that mastodon users can follow Lemmy communities as if the community was a virtual user? So in a sense you can view Lemmy through Fedilab but you have to be logged in thru mastodon or pixelfed?

It isn't working perfectly, I tried following !programming@programming.dev from mastodon and couldn't.

+1 for Fedilab It could use some improvements, but I am quite happy with it being able to look at multiple servers and follow different user from a single place.
