      Can’t say that I know for sure, but could be that the app doesn’t support this (yet)?

      I came find you like this from the Mastodon app.

      I'm finding you like this.

      Yes, we can follow Lemmy users from Mastodon.

      Maybe the accounts you’re looking for are in defederated instances?

        No they should be on large federated instances too…but that is not my mastodon account, I have an account in a different instance for mastodon.
