Sorry, I didn’t quiet get that.
The manual Mastodon posts already included link the Lemmy post URL.
What would adding a @tycoon@lemmy.world to Mastodon post do on the Lemmy side?
Or maybe I not getting something?

I think it’s worth trying putting the link in the post body. Mastodon might generate a preview image with it.
Another option would be creating the posts on mastodon, and mentioning the lemmy community. The KDE community uses this method for their announcements. Example: lemmy.world/post/27768851

mentioning a Lemmy community on Mastodon causes the Mastodon post to appear as a new Lemmy thread on that community AFAIK
Interesting, I will have to experiment with this. I am curious how the Mastodon formatting would transform to Lemmy.
You can experiement at !testfediverse@jlai.lu and plenty of other testing community.
!kde@lemmy.kde.social is a community that gets a lot of posts like that, try looking at that.

Yes, the ay they do it at KDE is the most seamless imteraction currently possible between lemmy and mastodon
