By this I mean: something that can view and fully interact with multiple different services like Lemmy, Mastodon, etc.
Does it exist already?

In Mastodon you can follow people (and Lemmy communities) in other Fediverse implementations. It’s not the full featured experience you get on them but you get a feed of the posts and can comment and like them, giving them a boost there.
It’s early days and I’m still experimenting with it but it looks like I might be using Mastodon as my hub for the Fediverse.
FWIW, Kbin integrates a lot more smoothly with Mastodon than Lemmy does. Lemmy does this weird thing with boosts, but Kbin looks like native posts.
This is true but I am still very confused about various kbin submission types. I once created a microblog post and then when I later checked that community on its lemmy domain view, my “micropost” was a whole thread with the entire contents as both title and body in it, duplicated. Some kbin threads also show up on mastodon (articles IIRC) but others don’t and there is no visual indication in the app which one it’s going to be.
