I’m a bit confused about if I needed a new account here or I could of used my mastodon account? Can we browse lemmy through mastodon and post? Can we see mastodon posts here?

Technically you can view & interact with kbin & Lemmy from Mastodon and vice versa but Mastodon itself is not really made to display kbin & Lemmy in your Reddit-like fashion. If you want to use kbin or Lemmy then I’d get an account on one of the kbin or Lemmy instances and use one of their frontends to view said content.
That being said, I can’t seem to see this particular magazine in Mastodon, but I assume if I were to I’d see threads like they were a toot, with replies to it being more toots that reply to the original.

Yes, as a user. If you go into Mastodon and search for Lemmy communities you can typically find them. There’s probably not all of them until a forced federation sync happens, which I’m not familiar enough to do as I also don’t use Mastodon, but technically it should be possible. I talked to someone posting from Mastodon inside of a kbin thread a while ago. They have to adhere to their limitations so their comments might be shorter and have to post multiple ones if they have more to say but it definitely works.
Kbin itself also supports toots in form of “Microblogs”.
I also just got my first reply notification again after several weeks. I hope that means that bug is fixed. :S
