      Lemmy is the fediverse link-aggregator, like Reddit

      Mastodon is the fediverse microblogging platform, like Twitter

      On Lemmy you subscribe to communities, but on Mastodon communities are essentially hashtags, so you can also follow users to get updates directly

          Perhaps it is me never using twitter, but mastodon felt really easy to use. In contrast to lemmy for example. The only difference it seems it has is that names have @ sign used like in email (as they do work like email, or have accounts on different servers).

          Well, there are other microbloging services on the Fediverse. Akkoma. Firefish. Misskey. Or there’s Friendica, which has more of a Facebook-like interface and supports groups (eg Lemmy communities).

          Lots of options here in the Fediverse.

          Then there’s the youtube alternative peertube, which has nothing to do with this conversation. I just wanted to remind people it was there 🥰
