Lemmy appears to be very similiar to Mastodon, with decentralised servers to prevent musky spezulence.

Just a bit confused as i’ve tried Mastodon using the Tusky app and it felt like twitter but decentralised, whilst Lemmy feels like reddit but decentralised but language such as fediverse is shared.

    Lemmy communities are “group” users that “boost” everything posted to them. You can follow one with a Mastodon account if you want to, but the Mastodon web UI isn’t the greatest at presenting the content properly. You can post to Lemmy by tagging a community just like other federated group systems such as https://a.gup.pe or https://chirp.social.
