@liaizon @fediverse as a newb to this (see my other post), what do they federate? Like from what I understand, Lemmy is a forum software. When I federate my Mastodon with someone's Lemmy, what do I see? Can I join in on threads on the Lemmy forum with Mastodon? and the other way around? Maybe I'm not getting the fediverse yet.
Not asking your precious time to guide me through this but that information would also be helpful in a visualisation like yours

@liaizon @fediverse @e Like the idea very much!
On a side note: What I could need is an actual easy to understand "what is this even". I'm probably not the target audience but I don't understand the difference between #Mastodon and #calckey for example. and what most of these other tools do. But I'm also somewhat new to social media so maybe it takes time.
@bloodaxe @liaizon @fediverse ah thanks. So basic content is shared or made sharable, like favorites getting read by Lemmy as upvotes.
Btw, I use Mastodon aswell and isn't this a Mastodon thread? Or is this Lemmy and it's already so integrated I don't even recognize it? Are there hints to which service im talking to?
