I would think that since they’re all federated together one single account could comment on all the different platforms
You should be able to; #ActivityPub was designed for that. But the mastodon team decided early on that that kind of interoperability wasn’t important to them so they built their own API and the rest of the fediverse has followed to remain compatible

I think kbin is changing its voting system to match lemmy’s so this isn’t relevant anymore, but kbin users don’t have to be much more careful. Kbin users should use kbin the way that makes sense and fediverse developers should handle how protocol things are interpreted.
For years, there have been mandates for users to change their behavior to deal with weird interoperability issues between software (mostly in how mastodon handles things from other software). The way to solve these issues is for the various fediverse vendors to work on proper interoperability not force users through weird hoops.
