How does lemmy fit into the fediverse? - eviltoast

Sorry, I am really new to the idea of the fediverse. So, it is about standartisation for social media protocols so I can interact with users on another side that uses the same standard. Does this mean if I post something on lemmy I can find it on Mastodon, or is it only certain features? I guess I dont understand how this applies to the every day use of there application

    woah this is crazy

    but it feels weird how many accounts i would still need, i just created one on mastodon.social but your post seems to be on mastodon.green which asked me to create a new account. this seems like its kind of against the idea of ActivityPub
