I presume they would maintain separate user account databases (without some concerted hacking).
I’m hoping at some point that different services will allow shared logins (with APIs it should be relatively straightforward) or a separate ID service (ActivityPods?).
I don’t know why I forgot this, but there is of course already a solution for this; mbin/kbin, which has both Lemmy-like and Mastodon-like interfaces on one platform.
Not that I’m actually suggesting anything you understand. Just recalling that this is a thought process someone’s already had at least once!
