If there isn’t yet, what’re the challenges to overcome in making one?
Not that I can code, just hoping for at least a layman’s understanding.

Can you explain this to me more. It seems mastodon account can be used to post on Lemmy, but is the opposite possible? Can I use Lemmy account on mastodon?
Lemmy does not normally display microblog content from Mastodon. You cannot follow users and see their posts listed on their profile or elsewhere, and as a result you cannot see or comment on their posts either.
Mastodon users can, however, tag a community on Lemmy the same way they can tag a user. If they do so, their post will appear as a thread in the tagged Lemmy community, and Lemmy users will be able to respond to them.
Mastodon users can basically pop up in the comment section any time, should they stumble over it for some reason or another. This could happen in many different ways: They could follow a hashtag, someone could share (boost) content into their feed, they could be mentioned, or they could read the Lemmy community and manually open the thread in Mastodon to reply.
