A bridge isn't really necessary. Both Lemmy and Pixelfed use the same communication protocol. Lemmy just doesn't let you follow users, and PixelFed is a user-based, rather than group-based, program.
If you want to follow both groups and users, you should just use a site that's running software that supports that. Mbin, or nodeBB, or something.
pixelfed also have hashtags, maybe we can map an hashtag to a lemmy community.
That's similar to want #Mbin does.
